초록

연구배경 : 징병검사에서 집단 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영의 폐결핵에 관련한 임상적 유용성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2003년 4월부터 11월까지 서울 지방병무청 제 2 징병검사장에서 징병검사를 시행한 25386명을 대상으로 하였다. 모두 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영을 시행하였고 이상소견자는 직접 방사선 촬영으로 확인하였다. 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영과 직접 방사선 촬영과의 양성 예측율을 알아보았다. 폐결핵을 중심으로 추적검사를 통해 활동성 폐결핵 유병율, 침윤정도와 임상경과를 알아보았다. 결 과 : 총 25386명중 328명에서 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영상 이상소견이 발견되어 직접 방사선 촬영으로 재검사하였다. 재검사 중 302명(1.19%)에서 이상소견이 확인되었다. 폐결핵을 포함한 폐실질병변이 109예였고, 종격동 병변이 6예, 심혈관계 이상이 45예, 흉막병변이 49예, 측만증을 포함한 골격계 이상이 90예 그리고 기타 7예였다. 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영상 폐결핵은 99예 였으며, 이중 활동성 폐결핵이 67예로 활동성 폐결핵의 유병율은 0.26%였다. 활동성 폐결핵 환자의 42예, 폐렴 1예, 종격동 종양 1예, 늑골골절 2예 그리고 기흉 4예가 최초 진단되었다. 활동성 폐결핵 환자의 폐침윤 정도는 경증이 52예 였으며, 60예에서 추적검사상 호전되었다. 결 론 : 징병검사에서 집단검사로서 흉부 간접 방사선 촬영은 한계와 문제점이 있으나, 특히 활동성 폐결핵을 포함한 병의 최초 조기발견에 있어 유용한 검사로 의미가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Background : This study examined the clinical utility of using indirect chest radiography during a physical examination of new conscripts for determine the presence of pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods : Over an eight-month period, this study examined 25386 people who underwent a physical examination after conscription. The abnormal findings on mass miniature radiography were followed-up using direct chest radiography. The positive predictive value of mass miniature radiography and direct chest radiography was compared. The incidence, degree of infiltration and clinical outcome of active pulmonary tuberculosis were also evaluated during a follow-up examination. Results : The positive rate of mass miniature radiography was 1.19% (n=302). Various lesions were identified: Parenchymal lesions (n=109), mediastinal lesions (n=6), cardiovascular lesions (n=45), pleural lesions (n=49), bony lesions (n=90) and miscellaneous lesions (n=7). The incidence of active pulmonary tuberculosis by mass miniature radiography was 0.26% (n=67). The first diagnosis was made in 50 people; active pulmonary tuberculosis (n=42), pneumonia (n=1), a mediastinal mass (n=1), a rib fracture (n=2) and a pneumothorax (n=4). Most cases of active pulmonary tuberculosis were mildly infiltrated and either improved or were cured by the follow-up examination. Conclusion : Although mass miniature radiography in a physical examination after conscription has limitations, but it is a useful means for detecting the presence of early disease, particularly in active pulmonary tuberculosis.
