POTENTIAL OF BILATERAL BRONCHOPHONOGRAPHYIN DIAGNOSTICS OF PATHOLOGIC FOCUS IN LUNG
Abstract
Bilateral bronchophonography helped to detect acoustic focus at 75% of patients suffering from pneumonia (sensitivity - 0,75, specificity - 0,86) that confirms comparability between this method and traditional procedures (examination, palpation, percussion, auscultation). Main advantage of this method consists in a possibility to describe inflammatory focus objectively (qualitatively and quantitatively) during examination and in dynamics, and to create individual archives of acoustic data. Besides, bilateral bronchophonography is non-invasive, non-ionizing and safety procedure that, if required, allows to perform frequent monitoring of the pathologic focus in the lung detected by using X-ray examination, including in cases when capabilities of X-ray examination are limited (for example, preg-nant women, nursing mothers).
