Respiratory infections in immunocompromised patients Lung ~ Respiratory infections and subsequent complications are one of the leading causes of high mortality in immunocompromised patients Although chest radiograph and computed tomography are the commonly used diagnostic tools for the early diagnosis of lung manifestations of infections they lack the specificity for the wide range of chest infections which can occur in immunocompromised patients
CT scan Wikipedia ~ A CT scan also known as computed tomography scan and formerly known as a computerized axial tomography scan or CAT scan makes use of computerprocessed combinations of many Xray measurements taken from different angles to produce crosssectional tomographic images virtual slices of specific areas of a scanned object allowing the user to see inside the object without cutting
