The study included 61 patients who were diagnosed with bronchiectasis by either MDCT or HRCT. Seven patients had positive MDCT scans only and two patients had positive HRCT scans only.

HRCT of thorax reveals minimal bronchiectasis in the right upper lobe. Case 4: She has positive precipitins against A. fumigatus, total eosinophil count of 389 cells/µl and normal HRCT of the chest.

Long-term follow-up revealed improved lung function despite persistent imaging abnormalities post-severe COVID-19.

Bronchiectasis may affect a few parts of the lung or be limited to a single lobe, depending on the etiology of the disease. Other symptoms may include shortness of breath, chest pain, and joint pain.

Results: HRCT imaging showed a high prevalence of air bronchogram (100%) and bronchiectasis (85%), with tumors predominantly located in the left upper lobe. Pathologically, ...

The Bronchiectasis Severity Index (BSI) was also calculated. A total of 113 patients (mean [SD] age 55 [11] years, 59.3% female) were enrolled in the study. Investigators found: ...

Bronchiectasis is now diagnosed in patients who range from the very young to the elderly, with geographic variability around the globe. 5 Seitz et al. found an annual absolute increase of 8.7 ...

BRONCHIECTASIS is protean in its expressions as it is sometimes obscure in its origin. The clinical picture varies in individual patients, but common to the severer cases is a history of harassing ...

Researchers also observed differences in 10-year mortality probability among those with suspected bronchiectasis in the PRISm group (0.07; 95% CI, –0.003 to 0.15) and in the obstructive ...

Bronchiectasis has symptoms like chronic coughing, wheezing, coughing up blood, and shortness of breath. Read about treatment options.

Bronchiectasis is a lung condition that causes a persistent cough and excess phlegm, or sputum. It is a permanent condition that gets worse over time. It can be fatal. The bronchi dilate, usually ...
