Abstract
Children with compromised immune systems, whether due to primary or secondary immunodeficiencies, are susceptible to a broad spectrum of acute intrathoracic pathologies. These include infections, pulmonary edema, and malignancies. Pulmonary issues are common and perilous in this population, necessitating prompt and precise diagnosis for effective management. This review aims to provide an overview of such conditions, focusing on the imaging appearances of the most prevalent acute lung conditions affecting immunocompromised children. It emphasizes the critical importance of an integrated clinical and radiological approach when diagnosing these acute pulmonary disease states.
期刊介绍：
Official Journal of the European Society of Pediatric Radiology, the Society for Pediatric Radiology and the Asian and Oceanic Society for Pediatric Radiology
Pediatric Radiology informs its readers of new findings and progress in all areas of pediatric imaging and in related fields. This is achieved by a blend of original papers, complemented by reviews that set out the present state of knowledge in a particular area of the specialty or summarize specific topics in which discussion has led to clear conclusions. Advances in technology, methodology, apparatus and auxiliary equipment are presented, and modifications of standard techniques are described.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
