Abstract

The paper presents the results of a study aimed to check the assumption that there is disparity in interpretation of X-ray and ultrasound images of Ductus arteriosus in children supposed to have tuberculosis. In total the images of 230 children with ambiguous Mantoux tuberculin skin test and with calcification adjusted to aortic window described in terms of regular X-ray were investigated. It is stated that multispiral computer tomograms are usually falsely interpreted as presenting calcifications in cases when ultrasound scans reveal only tissue heterogeneity near former Ductus arteriousus.
