Pneumonia in febrile neutropenic patients and in bone marrow and blood stem-cell transplant recipients: use of high-resolution computed tomography.
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The high frequency of inflammatory pulmonary disease after a suspicious HRCT scan proves that pneumonia is not excluded by a normal chest roentgenogram, given the significantly longer duration of febrile episodes in transplant recipients.
