Figure 5. This computed tomography scan of the chest highlights an intramuscular abscess, as indicated by the arrow. The abscess appears as a localized collection of fluid within the muscle tissue, surrounded by inflammatory stranding. The inflammatory stranding, visible as streaky areas of increased density, indicates the spread of inflammation into the surrounding tissues.
