Aspergillus - the prodigal picture


Several weeks ago I blogged about chronic invasive aspergillosis (chronic nectrotising aspergillosis as per the accompanying picture) in COPD / emphysema. The adjacent picture, which has just emerged from the archives of my previous talks and which was borrowed from a forgotten journal article, provides a very helpful schema for remembering how various aspergillus diseases relate to the host (patient) immune response. Thought it was worth posting all by itself.
