Abstract

In this chapter, chest X-ray and computed tomography findings are used to differentiate between nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and tuberculosis infection. Common and recognized patterns of NTM infection include cavitary diseases, bronchiectasis, and pulmonary infections in AIDS patients. Less commonly, the nodular pattern, a mass mimicking malignancy and of hypersensitivity pneumonitis can be seen. Any diagnosis requires a combination of laboratory, clinical and radiological findings. © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
