Abstract
The main focus of this review is to provide basic tenets associated with fungi, fungal infections, and cancer. Also, the chief aim of this review is to present information with regard to fungal infections that have been identified as malignancies from a radiologic perspective. Fungi exist in the environment and can cause health problems for anyone. Various fungal species can be found in the outdoor environment on plants, trees, in the soil, and in all buildings on various surfaces. Because fungi are ubiquitous it is difficult to escape contact with them [1].
