Hello there! I was just wondering if secondary ptb status quo will still be treated? and what does this mean? Is it contagious? This was the result from my mom's xray, we did one last may and this month for comparative reason, and the result revealed the same, there were opacities noted in her left upper lung field, she had been exposed to the disease during her early years, she is now 70. She had completed the treatment, her previous doctor said that the one seen in her lungs are scars left from the treatment, she consulted it though but she wasn't given any treatment. Hope you can enlighten me with this one. Thanks And God Bless!
