This paper reviews the most common causes of pulmonary infection in children, emphasizing the imaging findings. As with other viral infections, focal or diffuse interstitial opacities are the initial chest radiograph presentation, but they can progress rapidly to bilateral areas of consolidation (Fig. 3 ). These children are prone to repeated bacterial infections with associated pneumonia leading to postinfectious bronchiectasis (Fig. 18) . Chest radiograph and CT findings show Fig. 16 Axial CT shows the typical halo sign in an immunocompromised child with invasive aspergillosis chronic or recurrent pneumonia, usually by Aspergillus or Candida organisms. The most common chest radiograph and CT findings are diffuse reticular interstitial opacities that can progress to massive alveolar consolidations resulting in acute respiratory distress syndrome in infants (Fig. 20) . ./cache/cord-320438-9j41eyw3.txt ./txt/cord-320438-9j41eyw3.txt
