In this issue of Clinics in Chest Medicine, guest editors Drs. Scott Evans, Guang-Shing Cheng, Julio Ramirez, and Bashar Staitieh bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Pulmonary Disease in the Immunocompromised Host. Top experts discuss imaging the immunocompromised lung; laboratory molecular testing in immunocompromised host pneumonia; vaccines and other preventative strategies for immunocompromised pneumonia; adjunctive/host-directed therapies in immunocompromised host pneumonia; sequelae of immunocompromised host pneumonia; and more.
