nodular infiltrates are noted in the right upper lobe.
rest of the lung are clear.

In my previous xray result the finding is Left lobe minimal fibrosis. Then, i go to pulmo specialist and advice me for another xray. The result is chronic inflammatory lung disease compatible with ptb. But i do not undergo for sputum test, is it really 100% that i have TB even without sputum test? Is it xray is enough to say that i have TB?
