Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) has dire consequences in hemato-oncological patients. We report our experience with performing routine baseline chest computed tomography for early diagnosis of IPA. We found high rates of proven or probable IPA diagnosed on admission among patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
侵袭性肺曲霉病(IPA)在血液肿瘤患者中后果严重。我们报告了对这些患者进行常规基线胸部计算机断层扫描(CT)以早期诊断 IPA 的经验。我们发现新诊断为急性髓系白血病的患者中,在入院时即诊断出大量确诊或很可能的 IPA。
