Overview

Loeffler syndrome must be differentiated from other diseases that cause pulmonary eosinophilia, such as drug and toxin-induced eosinophilic lung diseases, other helminthic and fungal infection related eosinophilic lung diseases, nonhelminthic infections (eg, Coccidioidomycosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Churg-Strauss.

Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]

On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
