Figure 1

Computed tomography with contrast of the chest of a patient from Brazil infected with Burkholderia mallei. A) Coronal section, showing a heterogeneous pattern of lung attenuation. Arrows marked 1 indicate a suggestive disturbance in the ventilation-perfusion relationship. B) Axial section. Arrow marked 2 indicates consolidative opacities. Arrows marked 3 indicate subsegmental atelectasis in both lungs.
