Abstract
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to review the chest radiographic and CT findings in patients with swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus (S-OIV) infection.
CONCLUSION. The most common radiographic and CT findings in seven patients with S-OIV infection are unilateral or bilateral ground-glass opacities with or without associated focal or multifocal areas of consolidation. On MDCT, the ground-glass opacities and areas of consolidation had a predominant peribronchovascular and subpleural distribution, resembling organizing pneumonia.
