The increasing incidence of conditions associated with immune suppression, either as part of the illness or as the result of treatment, makes it necessary to investigate the possibility of fungus infections whenever there are broncho-pulmonary changes. In this respect, aspergillus is a common infection which produces more or less typical radiological changes. It often requires a variety of radiological procedures, including the use of CT and nuclear medicine. The latter can be useful in the allergic form of aspergillosis used for ventilation scintigraphy. The possibility of aspergillosis must be brought to the attention of the clinicians by the radiologist, even in cases that are not entirely typical.
