Abstract：
:Thirty-five cases of 'Q' fever have been admitted and confirmed serologically over the past 20 years. Thirty-two of these cases had chest films on admission, and lung changes were present in 87%. The lung changes were: 1. Multiple round segmental consolidations, 5--10 cm in diameter, of ground glass density and usually situated in the lower lobes. 2. Linear atelectasis. 3. Lobar or partial lobar consolidation, with some loss of volume in the affected lobe. 4. A slight pleural reaction in a few cases. 5. Some cases had background emphysema of the lungs. All the lesions tended to be slow to clear. The resolution time was from 10 to 70 days, with an average time fo 30 days. Some of the segmental lesions became small, round and dense during resolution. The 35 cases were almost exclusively in males. The finding of a single or multiple round segmental opacities of ground glass density, as described, especially with linear atelectasis, was found to be good evidence that the patient had 'Q' fever. The point is made that the admission chest film is in some cases a very useful early pointer to the diagnosis. This allows specific chemotherapy to be started before the serological results have come back. Plate atelectasis was helpful as a distinguishing feature from primary atypical pneumonia.
