[Sputum drainage by ultrasonic nebulization and the diagnosis of pulmonary carcinoma]
1Department of Pathology, Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai Medical College.
Abstract:
From June 1984 to June 1989, the sputum drain age by ultrasonic nebulization was done in 1155 cases of suspected lung cancer. From 286 positive cases, 157 (54.9%) were confirmed to be pulmonary cancer histologically. The general cytological and histological identification coincidence rate is 86%.

Sputum Studies II: Culture and Sensitivity
Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...
