    PubMed
    Summary

    Childhood pneumonia with persistent opacification may indicate an abscess. Computed tomography aids in early diagnosis of lung abscesses or empyema, which are often missed before surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Pulmonology
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Acute pneumonia in children often presents with bulging margins due to exudate.
    • Persistent, unexplained pneumonia after treatment suggests potential abscess formation.
    • Traditional diagnosis of such abscesses typically occurs late, via thoracotomy or autopsy.
