the Atlas of AIDS Co-infection illustrates imaging features and clinical outcomes of AIDS
related diseases. The common uncommon opportunistic infections and malignancies are well
covered including bacterial (e.g. Staphylococcus Rhodococcus equi) fungal (e.g. Penicillium
marneffei Pneumocystis pneumonia Pulmonary aspergillosis Mucormycosis) and mycobacterial
infections (Mycobacterium tuberculosis Non-tuberculous Mycobacteria) lymphoma as well as
AIDS related disease in children with AIDS. Excellent photographs (X-ray and CT imaging) reveal
the common imaging features of different diseases in different stages of treatment.
Co-infections are common in the late stage of AIDS consistent with considerable overlap of CT
findings that are displayed in one single section and some of the cases in several sections. At
last there are excellent descriptions of differential diagnosis based on the same appearance
(e.g. diffuse pulmonary miliary nodules mediastinal and abdominal lymphadenopathy). Learning
variety of different imaging will enrich the radiologists experience and knowledge about
AIDS-related diseases and also help clinicians making timely diagnosis and appropriate optimal
treatment. It belongs in the library of each Radiologist HIV expert and all of who care about
Infectious Diseases.
