Abstract
We sought to describe the radiographic and high-resolution CT findings of influenza virus pneumonia in patients with hematologic malignancies. Radiologic findings of influenza virus pneumonia in immunocompromised patients consist of patchy or confluent consolidation and nodular opacities on chest radiography and ground-glass attenuation, consolidation, centrilobular nodules, and branching linear opacities on high-resolution CT.
