Hi all, Have you seen this article? " In patients successfully treated for pulmonary disease caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria, CT scans at treatment’s end can accurately predict infection recurrence, a study found. Specifically, CT scores for bronchiectasis and lung nodules were independent predictors of recurrence." https://bronchiectasisnewstoday.com/2021/02/05/ct-scores-for-bronchiectasis-nodules-predict-ntm-recurrence-study-finds/

@lorifilipek Lori, Funny I was just getting ready to post this same article. Looks like follow up CT scans are very important.

Hi Lori @lorifilipek thanks very much for this Bronchiectasis News article.
(For anyone who wants to 'see the numbers' -- LOL -- the original article this news report came from is really worth a read also: https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/10/2/172/htm ).
Thanks to all you wonderful people helping each other.
Hugs (virtual of course) from Annie
