case_images: Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed mild swelling and thickening of the pancreas, blurring of the lipid spaces around the pancreas, and no gallbladder or extrahepatic bile duct expansion (Figure 1A). Abdominal CT revealed a reduction in the pancreatic swelling and in the patchy, blurred, low-density shadows around the pancreas (Figure 1B).
case_images: Chest computed tomography images (A) A chest computed tomography image obtained on hospital day 2 shows left upper-lobe patchy consolidation shadows. (B) A chest computed tomography image obtained on hospital day 3 shows increased consolidation shadows in the left lung and a small bilateral pleural effusion. (C) A chest computed tomography image obtained on hospital day 15 shows marked resorption of the left lung lesion and a small increase in the bilateral pleural effusion. (D) A chest computed tomography image obtained on hospital day 27 shows that the lung lesions are resolved.

case_images: The patient experienced dyspnea upon physical exertion, and a chest CT revealed patchy consolidation in the superior lobe of the left lung (Figure 2A). CT pulmonary angiography revealed increased consolidation in the left lung and a small degree of bilateral pleural effusion (Figure 2B). On hospital day 14, chest CT revealed marked resorption of the consolidation in the left lung and a slight bilateral increase in pleural effusion (Figure 2C). On hospital day 26, chest CT revealed no exudative lesion of the left lung and no pleural effusion (Figure 2D).
