Overview

Screening for pneumoconiosis includes using chest radiography on workers exposed to certain particles as a part of preventative care. [1] [2]

Screening

Chest radiography is used as a screening tool for workers as a part of primary prevention. However, HRCT is more sensitive and specific. Future methods of screening workers include measuring serum SMRP and fibulin-3, CEA, and urinary 8-OHdG and breath testing of pentane, C5-C7 alkanes, and methylated alkanes. [3] [4] [5]
