Summary: Abstract: This study was made to determine the relationship of roentgenographic findings and clinical presentation of adult PTB patient. One-hundred subjects were randomly selected in the four areas of Barangay E. Rodriguez, Cubao, Quezon City. A standard questionnaire was used in the course of the interview. Individuals eligible for the study as symptomatics or when x-rays not contraindicated underwent radiographic examination through a mobile chest x-ray unit. Those with positive CXR findings were further subjected to sputum smear examination for definitive diagnosis. Seventy - eight out of one - hundred interviewees complied with the CXR. Only ten patients had positive findings which were the final study population. The study utilized the mean average testing as data processing method. The characteristics of the subject with positive CXR were young adults, males and with past history of PTB. The most common clinical presentations were cough ( local ) and weight loss ( constitutional ) , as well as, easy fatigability. Phlegm and chest pain satisfactory results were noted to differ from preceeding study which had dyspnea and hemoptysis. Non-cavitary type of tuberculosis, moderately advanced or minimal TB and involvement of the right lung were noted. The clinical presentations of positive chest radiographic findings were distressing cough of >4 weeks duration and weight loss for >3 months.
