CT manifestations of pulmonary tuberculosis

Many people are diagnosed with tuberculosis through CT and chest X-rays. Because tuberculosis is a serious infectious disease that can be infected, patients will suffer a lot once they are diagnosed with tuberculosis. Not only is the treatment process slow and the cost is relatively high, but they cannot live with their families and need to be isolated during severe periods. So what are the manifestations of CT scans for tuberculosis?

If a child has already developed pediatric tuberculosis, he or she must be taken to the hospital for a CT scan and some routine examinations, such as a blood test, which can effectively identify whether the child has tuberculosis. Moreover, children with pulmonary tuberculosis also have certain clinical manifestations, such as low-grade fever, night sweats, fatigue, constant crying, etc.

The main examination items on the routine blood test report for pediatric tuberculosis include examination of the red blood cell system, white blood cell system, and platelet system. If a child suffers from tuberculosis, the red blood cell count will increase, the white blood cell count will increase, and the platelet count will decrease. The normal values ​​of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in a routine blood test are: hemoglobin 120-140 g/L, red blood cell count (6.0-7.0)×10^12/L (6 million-7 million/mm3), white blood cell count (5.0-12.0)×10^9/L, platelet count (100-300)×10^9/L. If the child's blood routine values ​​are outside these ranges, then the child may have pediatric tuberculosis or other lung diseases.

Tuberculosis is contagious. If there is tuberculosis in your family, you must separate food and drink when eating. Because children have relatively low resistance, you must take precautions in advance to avoid tuberculosis transmission in children. Feeding children more high-protein foods can effectively prevent the occurrence of tuberculosis and increase their resistance. Because parents have strong resistance, their children may have tuberculosis without being discovered. The calcium soap slowly dissolves and disappears. However, because children have low resistance, we must pay more attention. If a low-grade fever occurs, we must rule out tuberculosis. Be prepared for prevention.
