Pulmonary Tuberculosis IV01:26

Pulmonary Tuberculosis IV

445
Tuberculosis, more commonly referred to as TB, is an infectious disease stemming from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While it primarily impacts the lungs, TB can also affect other body areas. Given its severity and global impact, timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for controlling its spread and improving patient outcomes.
Several diagnostic approaches are used to detect TB. The conventional method is the Tuberculin Skin Test (TST), also known as the Mantoux test. However, this method has...

Pneumothorax-II01:27

Pneumothorax-II

782
Pneumothorax is a medical condition defined by the buildup of air in the pleural space between the lungs and the chest wall. This accumulation of air can lead to partial or complete lung collapse, resulting in a range of clinical manifestations. Understanding the clinical presentation and effective management strategies is crucial for healthcare professionals in providing timely and appropriate care to individuals with pneumothorax.
Clinical Manifestations:

Pulmonary Tuberculosis II

1.3K
Tuberculosis, or TB, is a bacterial infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While its primary impact is on the lungs, leading to pulmonary tuberculosis, it can also affect various other organs, a condition referred to as extrapulmonary tuberculosis.
Here is a detailed explanation of its pathophysiology:
Transmission: The process begins when a person inhales droplet nuclei containing M. tuberculosis. These are typically released into the air when an individual with pulmonary or...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis III01:31

Pulmonary Tuberculosis III

829
Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infection primarily affecting the lung parenchyma but which can also affect other body parts. TB can be classified based on disease development, presentation, and the affected anatomical site.
The first classification is based on the development of the disease, and it includes the following categories:

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

232
Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan01:13

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

342
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Pulmonology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading infectious cause of death globally.
  • Pakistan faces a significant TB burden, impacting rural populations.
  • Residual thoracic changes after TB treatment can affect quality of life and mimic active disease.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To illustrate the spectrum of radiologic manifestations of thoracic sequelae after successful TB treatment.
  • To aid clinicians in recognizing and differentiating post-TB residual changes from active pathologies.

Main Methods:

  • Pictorial review of chest radiography and computed tomography (CT) findings.
  • Categorization of sequelae into parenchymal, airway, pleural/chest wall, vascular, and mediastinal.

Main Results:

  • Detailed radiologic examples of various post-TB sequelae are presented.
  • Findings range from minor residual changes to debilitating or fatal complications.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding post-TB thoracic sequelae on imaging is vital for accurate patient management.
  • Radiologic recognition of these residual changes improves diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.
