Overview
Chest X-ray findings in patients with pulmonary Mycobacterium abscessus infection include upper lobe infiltrates, cavitation, and/or patchy, reticulonodular, or mixed interstitial-alveolar opacities. The chest X-ray abnormalities can be bilateral or multilobal.[1][2]
Chest X-Ray
Patients with pulmonary M. abscessus infection might have the following findings on chest X-ray:[1][2]
- Upper lobe infiltrates
- Bilateral involvement of the lungs
- Mulilobal involvement
- Opacities (patchy, reticulonodular, or mixed interstitial-alveolar)
- Cavitation
