Imaging of supra-thoracic tuberculosis
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL IMAGING AND RADIATION ONCOLOGY(2024)
摘要
Tuberculosis (TB) typically affects the lungs, but may involve many extra-pulmonary sites; with the latter especially prone in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. The clinical features of extra-pulmonary TB are often non-specific, mimicking many different disease entities. Application of the most appropriate imaging modality and knowing the imaging findings with clinical context awareness help initiation of further investigations, diagnosis and early treatment. This pictorial essay highlights the imaging spectrum of extra-pulmonary TB affecting the supra-thoracic region, i.e. brain, neck, and ear, nose and throat.
