Caseous and infiltrative-caseous pneumonia in computed tomography.
Computer tomography (CT) imaging was made in 22 patients with acute tuberculosis--caseous and infiltrative-caseous pneumonia. CT role in detection of caseous changes, assessment of the extent and structure of caseosis, in differentiation of caseous and infiltrative-caseous pneumonia is described. CT is suggested to be an optimal roentgenological method of identifying caseous-pneumonic forms of tuberculosis.
