Abstract

Bronchiectasis is an irreversible dilatation that may require surgery for successful treatment. We compared High Resolutional Computed Tomography[HRCT]with Bronchography to access the utility of HRCT in diagnosis and determining the extent of Bronchiectasis. We performed a comparative study of HRCT and Bronchography in 10 consecutive patients who were clinically suspected Bronchiectasis were investigated prospectively during last year.A segment-by-segment analysis of the presence, extent, type of bronchiectasis by Amashita classification was done. In 26 segments, Results of HRCT and Bronchogram were both positve, and 119 segments were both negative.But 15 segments were discorded, in 11 segments in positive bronchogram were negative in HRCT and 4 segments in positive HRCT were negative in bronchogram. The diagnostic concordance rate between 2 modalities was 90.6%[145/160]. So, we will be tried to elevate of concordance rate between 2 modalties and applied HRCT in diagnotic tool for bronchiectasis.
