IMPRESSION

BILATERAL UPPER LOBE PTB OF UNDETERMINED ACTIVITY

and i dont ask the doctor what it means..

Hi Jhanis,

It means you have very likely have pulmonary tuberculosis.  Reticulonodular means that there is is the appearance of a "net" like pattern on the lungs.

See your doctor.  You WILL need treatment.  Tuberculosis scarring is permanent.

Good luck.

Consider PTB, upper lobes activity undetermined.

I had a history of bronchitis when I was a child. What does the "undetermined" means? Do I have a PTB? Do I need to do 6 months medication? Hope u will answer me. Thank u
