Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The classic clinical features of pulmonary TB include chronic cough, sputum production, appetite loss, weight loss, fever, night sweats, and hemoptysis (Lawn and Zumla 2011). Someone presenting with any of these symptoms should be suspected of having TB.
Detailed explanation-2: -A posterior-anterior chest radiograph is used to detect chest abnormalities. Lesions may appear anywhere in the lungs and may differ in size, shape, density, and cavitation. These abnormalities may suggest TB, but cannot be used to definitively diagnose TB.
