No results posted yet for this study

Summary

High resolution computed tomography of the chest is the gold standard imaging modality for most pulmonary diseases. However, the associated high expenses, radiation exposure , and its limited possibility for bedside use are a limitation.

Conditions

  • Pleural Diseases

Interventions

OTHER

High resolution computed tomography

High resolution computed tomography of the chest is the gold standard imaging modality for most pulmonary diseases

OTHER

trans thoracic ultrasonography

Trans thoracic ultrasonograghy is used progressively for evaluation of pulmonary diseases . Its non invasive nature , relatively low price ,portability for bedside use, and high reproducible of results allows for incorporation of imaging findings with clinical data
