(A) Chest X-ray film showing an infiltrative shadow in both the middle and lower lung fields mainly in the right lung. (B) and (C) CT scan images showing bilateral multiple intra-pulmonary focal lesions. The most predominant two pulmonary nodules demonstrated mainly in the anterior segment of upper lobe and lateral segment of lower lobe of right lung field respectively.
