Purpose: To present the different findings of Chlamydia psittaci (C. psittaci) pneumonia on computed tomography (CT) according to the progression of the disease, to improve diagnostic accuracy, guide early clinical diagnosis, evaluate treatment efficacy, and reduce the mortality associated with the disease.
Methods: In total, 80 cases of C.

Purpose: Mucormycosis is a rare but emerging and life-threatening infection caused by environmental mold, with a mortality rate of 30-70% despite progress in management. A better understanding could improve its management.
Method: We conducted a single-center retrospective study of all cases of mucormycosis observed over a decade at the University Hospital of Caen.

Aims: To investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasound features with dual-phenotype hepatocellular carcinoma (DPHCC). Material and methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) confirmed by pathology results from October 2016 to December 2023. Patients were categorized into DPHCC and non-DPHCC (NDPHCC) groups based on immunohistochemical findings.

Background: Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) is a rare lung condition affecting the bronchioles and alveoli. This study aimed to determine the course of the disease and response to treatment in a group of COP patients.
Materials And Methods: In a cohort study, patients' data including demographic features, chest imaging, spirometry, and blood tests, were recorded.
Background: Pulmonary invasive fungal infections pose a serious risk for immunocompromised patients. Although diagnostic imaging plays an important role in the early detection of pulmonary invasive fungal infections, radiological differentiation between invasive fungal infection and other pulmonary infections is challenging.
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in the differentiation between pulmonary invasive fungal infections and other pulmonary infections in paediatric cancer patients.
