description The influenza A (H1N1) has a wide radiological spectrum, difficult to differentiate from other epidemic respiratory diseases. One of the distinctive elements seems to be the quick evolution of the imagenologic lesions in the sick persons, as well as the slow resolution of these manifestations. The chest fillm is of vital importance to make a precise diagnosis, and it constitutes an indispensable tool for the identification of the cases according to the affection degree (light, moderate, and severe), besides contributing as an essential way to the classification of the patients according to a grade of uncertainty. Although as a confirmation complementary is not definitive, it is important in defining if a case is suspicious or probable.
