Chapter
Tropical Pulmonary Radiology
Abstract
This chapter describes the radiological findings of the more common con- ditions that affect the thorax in the tropics. Inevitably, the bulk of the discussion focuses on infectious diseases. The first part of this chapter considers the broader issues of imaging services in the tropics; the second part concentrates on the radiology of infectious and other disease states.
