[Radiology in tuberculosis].

The radiological manifestations of pulmonary tuberculosis such as primary and secondary tuberculosis, micronodular tuberculosis and tuberculous pneumonia as well as postinfectious residual scarring, are described. Simultaneously the radiology of the extrapulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis such as tuberculous pleurisy, spondylitis, different forms of abdominal tuberculosis and renal tuberculosis is discussed. Pathophysiological mechanisms are used to classify the different manifestations of tuberculosis, to explain the localizations typical of pulmonary tuberculosis as well as of extrapulmonary tuberculosis and finally to specify the most important differential diagnoses.

[Fibroadenoma of the breast].

n 856 female patients round opacities were found in mammography. In 58 patients of this group the pathological and histological results were known. 125 female patients had been examined more than three times. With these 183 fibroadenomas thus established, criteria were worked out facilitating the decision whether surgical intervention would be required or short-term control could be justified. In comparison with the benign opacities, these histologically confirmed carcinomas were examined according to clinical, thermographical and radiological criteria.

[Value of ultrasonic testing and sonographic differential diagnosis in mammary cysts].

Echography of the breast was performed in 100 women in whom palpation had prompted suspicion of the presence of a cyst. Examination was done with a real-time scanner with a 2.5 or 5 mhz freely mobile soundhead. Cysts were detected in 56 women by this sonographic method. Approximately 9% of these were complicated cysts requiring surgical treatment. Although sonography facilitates identification of, single or of multiple cysts, it will be necessary to perform pneumocystography and x-ray film examination in two projections on first examination in order to exclude complicated cysts, since mere sonographic control after puncture of the cyst is too inaccurate for identifying complicated cysts.
