Asbestosis is generally recognized based on an abnormal radiograph consistent with asbestosis in an individual with a plausible history of asbestos exposure ten or more years previously with no more compelling alternate explanation for the X-ray changes (ATS, 2004). An international method of ...
Neither plaque nor calcification were noted. The histologic findings observed on open-lung biopsy specimen were well in accord with those in HRCT. Many asbestos-coated bodies were present along with black dust. 展开 关键词:Asbestosis Biopsy Middle Age Radiography, Thoracic Tomography, X Ray ...
Of these, 288 were white or black, had begun working in shipyards at least 20 years earlier, and had satisfactory chest x-ray film findings; 257 underwent spirometric testing, and 199 had single-breath diffusing capacities for carbon monoxide (Dsb) determined. There were radiographic signs of ...
