Abstract |
Occupational respiratory diseases due to industrial aerosols pertain to one of the most prevalent forms of occupational pathology. The experience of many years gained by the clinic of our Institute enables one to define the significance of some forms of the given pathology and characteristic features of their diagnosis. The broad-scale introduction into the clinical practice of intravital biopsy of the lungs requires the solution of the problem as to whether the given method equally to the x-ray technique regarded as the basic one is of informative value for the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. The diversity of occupational pulmonary diseases which are due to industrial aerosols and differ in the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations determines the importance of perfecting the clinical groupings of the main forms of occupational diseases in terms of the pathogenesis.
