Female patient 72-years-old presenting with dyspnea and cough. A-D: Axial T1 (A), axial T2 (B), axial STIR (C), coronal STIR (D), weighted MR images show left upper lobar cavitary lesion with soft tissue within and surrounding consolidation. They elicit isointense T1 signal and hyperintense T2 signal relative to the surrounding muscles with air crescent sign. DWI (E) and ADC map (F) images show facilitated diffusion and LSR = 0.58, ADC mean value 1.85 with ADC min value 1.51. Bronchoscopic examination with brocho-alveolar lavage and cytology revealed fungal infection (aspergilloma)
