Chest X-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of aspergillosis. Findings on chest X-ray suggestive of aspergillosis include a well demarcated, round, soft tissue mass located inside an air space cavity of the lungs.[1]

X-Ray

  • Chest X-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of aspergillosis.
  • Findings on chest X-ray suggestive of aspergillosis include:
  • A well demarcated, round, soft tissue mass
  • Located inside an air space cavity of the lungs
  • Air crescent sign
  • Altering the position of the patient usually demonstrates that the mass is mobile
