[Pulmonoscintigraphy in sarcoidosis and certain forms of pulmonary tuberculosis].

Comprehensive investigations including clinical examination, x-ray and scintigraphy of the lungs were conducted in 163 patients with sarcoidosis, Stages I, II, III, disseminated tuberculosis and tuberculosis of the intrathoracic lymph nodes. The scintigraphic method is more sensitive to initial pulmonary changes in the process of treatment than the x-ray one. Earlier changes in the course of disease are recorded by pulmonary circulation changes (microcirculation) revealed at pulmonoscintigraphy.
