@hemo_shk @IhabFathiSulima Except TB, Other differential diagnoses of cavitary pulmonary lesions include infections (Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, anaerobes), and non-infectious causes (squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, pulmonary infarcts, Wegener’s granulomatosis, and rheumatoid nodules) to name some.

@hemo_shk @IhabFathiSulima ACTIVE PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS The CXR shows bilateral upper lobe infiltrates with cavities, suggestive of active pulmonary tuberculosis. Diagnosis is confirmed by obtaining sputum and staining with fluorochrome or Zeil Nielson and culturing with Lowenstein Jansen media.

@Mteverestfalls Correct (2) Tuberculosis tends to afflict the upper lobes and apical segment of the lower lobes. However, within the upper lobe, anterior segment involvement is rare. Diagnosis is confirmed by obtaining sputum and staining with fluorochrome or Zeil Nielson and long tern culturing

@Mteverestfalls Correct! The CXR shows bilateral upper lobe infiltrates with cavities, suggestive of active pulmonary tuberculosis. In general, thin-walled cavities (5 mm) tend to be infec-tive and, when thick-walled (10 mm), squamous cell carcinoma of the lung enters into the dx.

Wise words. I have been a PhD candidate, an early and advanced post-doc, and a PI (for almost 20 years). We must always appreciate the help of our post-docs in training and supporting our PhD students especially in their early years. Post-docs are the cornerstones of academia
Postdocs do a lot of invisible labor in academia. The majority of which is helping PhD students. Many of us are happy to do it, but when students fail to acknowledge that help, especially in front of the PI, it kinda kills the vibe. Give people credit for their work.
