Abstract

The most common HRCT features in patients with AIDS and pulmonary PCM are large nodules associated with cavitated air-space consolidations and ground-glass attenuation, as well as cicatricial emphysema in the pulmonary bases. These findings are usually distributed bilaterally in the middle lung zones of the lungs.
