SAMPLES AND METHODS: Serial HRCT scans in 39 patients with pneumonia complicating novel influenza A (H1N1) were reviewed for predominant patterns of lung abnormalities as well as distribution and extent of involvement. Thus, the purpose of our study was to evaluate the lung parenchymal abnormalities in patients with influenza A (H1N1) by serial HRCT scans at the early, progressive and convalescent stages of the disease. The serial HRCT scans obtained in our cohort provided an opportunity to study the longitudinal changes of lung abnormalities in patients with pneumonia complicating influenza A (H1N1) at its early, progressive and convalescent stages. We described longitudinal changes of lung abnormalities demonstrated by HRCT in 39 patients with clinically defined pneumonia complicating influenza A (H1N1) at its early, progressive and convalescent stages. ./cache/cord-355504-zsyvgm9c.txt ./txt/cord-355504-zsyvgm9c.txt
