A chest radiograph on admission was consistent with a multifocal pneumonia (see Figure 1).
CT chest scan on admission: bronchiectasis and consolidation in the left upper lobe in addition to peripheral consolidation in the right upper lobe with adjacent ground-glass opacification.

A computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest without contrast confirmed multilobar opacities, including the left apical and upper lobe consolidations with bronchiectasis, as well as a right upper lobe consolidation with ground-glass opacification (see Figure 2).
CT chest scan on hospital day 6: persistent consolidation in the left upper lobe with bronchiectasis and in the right upper lobe again noted; new scattered areas of ground glass are seen in both lungs, particularly affecting the right upper lobe.
