A Case of Transient Radiographic Progression during Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Early CT Findings / 결핵및호흡기질환

ABSTRACT

Early CT findings of transient radiographic progression (TRP) during treatment of active pulmonary tuberculosis including subpleural, interlobular or intralobular septal thickening and micronodules are shown in the present case. Late CT findings of TRP are subpleural, enhancing nodular infiltration with internal low attenuation. These CT features accompanied by a lack of clinical worsening in young patients taking antituberculous medication due to pulmonary tuberculosis can help to differentiate TRP from other disease entities.
