Talk to Chest Respiratory Specialist on Chest Xray Suspected Of TB
Asking for Self, Male, 29 years old, Pakistan
Hello.
Recently i submitted my chest xray for a procedure and the system tagged it as a potential TB case. I was wondering if anyone can help me out by seeing this xray and if there are indeed any signs of TB or anything else serious? TIA

Thank you for replying. The center conducted sputum test 2 months ago. They said they will let me know if the test result came back positive. But i havnt heard from them yet.
What indication is there in the scan for which they are suspecting TB?
