[Clinical, immunological and radioimmunological diagnosis of lung cancer detected in prophylactic fluorographic surveys].

A comprehensive survey, including clinical, X-ray, thermographic, immunological, and radioimmunological studies, was made in 56 patients with lung cancer detected on prophylactic fluorographic surveys and erroneously referred to the Lvov Regional Clinical and Diagnostic Phthisiopulmonological Center for suspected active pulmonary tuberculosis. Routine clinical and laboratory studies provided preliminary information in only 26.8% of cases and 73.

[Pulmonary ventilation and central hemodynamics in pulmonary tuberculosis patients].

Computerized devices were used for evaluation of the state of pulmonary ventilation and central hemodynamics in 32 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis depending on the spread of the specific process. Patients with limited changes in the lungs, showed disorders of bronchial patency and compensatory increase of organic ejection of the right ventricle. In the presence of spread changes in the lungs the above mentioned changes were supplemented by restrictive ventilation disorders with a reduction of the contractile myocardial capacity.
