| pneumonia, viral | Pneumonia caused by a virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pneumonia virus of mice | An RNA virus of the genus Pneumovirus, a member of the family Paramyxoviridae, occurring normally as latent infection in laboratory mice, but capable of activation by serial intranasal passage and causing pneumonia. Synonym: PVM virus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| mycoplasmal pneumonia | An acute systemic disease with involvement of the lungs, caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae and marked by high fever, cough, relatively few physical signs, and scattered densities on X-rays; usually associated with development of cold agglutinins and antibodies to the bacteria.
