AB  - Pulmonary  infiltrates  in  immunocompromised  patients  (patients  with  HIV  disease,  absolute  neutrophil  counts  less  than  1000/mcL  [less  than  1.0  ×  109/L],  current  or  recent  exposure  to  myelosuppressive  or  immunosuppressive  medications,  or  those  currently  taking  more  than  20  mg/day  of  prednisone)  may  arise  from  infectious  or  noninfectious  causes.  Infection  may  be  due  to  bacterial,  mycobacterial,  fungal,  protozoal,  helminthic,  or  viral  pathogens.  Noninfectious  processes,  such  as  pulmonary  edema,  alveolar  hemorrhage,  medication  reactions,  pulmonary  thromboembolic  disease,  malignancy,  and  radiation  pneumonitis,  may  mimic  infection.
