摘要
Objective: To evaluate the radiological features in the cases with geriatric pulmonary tuberculosis(GPTB). Methods: One hundred and two elderly patients with tuberculosis were studied in this paper. All patients had an examination on chest X-ray, and 63 of them had a chest scan of CT. Results: The pulmonary tuberculosis infiltration, caseous pneumonia and cavitary lesions were found in 85, 11 and 19 cases with GPTB respectively. Acute miliary tuberculosis was diagnosed in 2 cases. Pleural effusion was in 26 cases. In addition, Hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy was presented in the other 13 cases. Conclusion: Radiological findings of GPTB were atypical in general.
