Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The ready availability of high-resolution CT (HRCT) has highlighted significant radiographic differences between diseases that have similar plain chest radiographic patterns.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Most patients with ILD have bilateral inspiratory, fine crackles, which usually are most prominent at the lung bases.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
