MORE RECENT LESIONS IN THE RIGHT APEXTotal obscurity of the left hemithorax with large clearer zones in the upper half (cavities).. Radiograph 29. INCIPIENT TUBERCULOSISClinical signs more important than radioscopic signs. Woman of eight monthspregnancy. Deformity of the thorax, ribs and clavicles. Clearness of the apicesquite well retained. Obscure, diverging lines from the hilus region on both sidesand spreading out like a fan into the pulmonary fields. Clinical examination—at the right apex diminution of sonorousness. Increase of fremitus, sensitivenesson percussion; great diminution of vesicular sound. Diffuse bronchitis over theentire right lung; no loose rales. At the right apex the clinical signs are more im-portant than the radioscopic. CHRONIC PULMONARY PROCESSES 115 from a radiological point of view, is seen as a decrease inclearness and reduction of the pulmonary field. When local,sclerosis is seen on the screen as a diffuse, well defined ob-scurity; when generalized, it is characterized by totaldiminution in the clearness of the pulmonary fields and theinvariability of the diameters of the thorax in
