由分枝杆菌生物体(例如结核分枝杆菌和其他分枝杆菌物种)感染引起的疾病仍然是美国的一个重大健康问题。过去十年来,一些新因素加剧了这一问题,其中最重要的是人类免疫缺陷病毒感染的持续流行。本综述将讨论分枝杆菌疾病流行病学的变化,并强调这些变化对放射科医生的重要性。
Diseases consequent to infection with mycobacterial organisms, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other mycobacterial species, remain a significant health problem in the United States. Over the past decade several new factors have amplified this problem, the most significant of which is the ongoing epidemic of infection with the human immunodeficiency virus. This review will discuss the changing epidemiology of mycobacterial disease and emphasize the significance of these changes to the radiologist.
