While CXR provides relevant clinical information concerning central venous catheters (CVC), pleural effusion, and pulmonary congestion [ 17 ] , it fails to enable early detection or exclusion of pneumonia, which is a major task in immunocompromised hosts. For use in the context of clinical and epidemiological research in neutropenic patients, standards for the interpretation of radiological fi ndings in invasive fungal infections have been elaborated [ 10 , 51 ] ; newly emerged "typical" CT patterns (dense, well-circumscribed lesions with or without a halo sign, air-crescent sign) are classifi ed as a clinical criterion for fungal pneumonia Figs. ./cache/cord-018027-goxdiyv3.txt ./txt/cord-018027-goxdiyv3.txt
