title: [Digital X-ray study in the monitoring of collapse therapy in patients with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis].
abstract: Digital versus analogue X-ray studies in identifying different X-ray symptoms are analyzed; their accuracy, sensitivity, and radiation load on a patient were established. The costs of consumables used at digital and analogue X-ray studies have been calculated. An algorithm for monitoring artificial pneumothorax and pneumoperitoneum has been proposed for patients with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis. A procedure has been developed to determine a commissural process in the pleural cavity by digital X-ray study and X-ray computed tomography. The findings are indicative of the expediency and medicoeconomic effectiveness of digital X-ray study used in the monitoring collapse therapy in patients with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis.
