title: [The results of using a mathematical method for the differential diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis and cancer].
abstract: The authors developed a table differential-diagnostic algorithm designed for improvement of the differential diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis and cancer. This algorithm allows to establish precise diagnosis of cancer or tuberculosis of the lungs at district and regional health service levels, enhances the time of diagnosis and favours rational treatment.
