In this issue of Clinics in Chest Medicine, guest editors Dr. Barbara Jones, Chiagozie Pickens, and Charles Dela Cruz bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Pneumonia. Leading experts provide in-depth discussions on viral and bacterial co-infection; global variation in pneumonia epidemiology; diagnostic testing in patients with a clinical diagnosis of pneumonia; host response diagnostics in pneumonia; imaging modalities to diagnose pneumonia; and more.
