Association of bronchoalveolar lavage yield with chest computed tomography findings and symptoms in immunocompromised patients
INTRODUCTION: Fiber-optic bronchoscopy (FOB) with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a common procedure performed in immunocompromised patients with undiagnosed pulmonary pathology. Identifying patients with the highest potential diagnostic yield may help to avoid morbidity in patients unlikely to bene...
