80- year-old non-smoker with childhood history of treated TB, presnts with chronic dyspnea
Corresponding images of a CXR and CT scan show hyperinflation and diffuse interstitial coarsening of the lung markings with upward retraction of the right hilum (a,white arrowhead) a calcified broncholith in the LUL (b, and d red arrowheads) a calcified granuloma in the RUL (a, red arrowhead) and basilar interstitial process (black arrowheads b and d)

73 year old female with history of TB . CT in the axial plane shows a focus of bronchiectasis in the medial segment of the RML (blue arrowhead b, d, e) caused by a calcified broncholith in the medial segment of the middle lobe (white arrowhead d and e) with upstream bronchiectasis (orange arrowhead b and e). Linear nodular changed noted in the right upper lobe (green arrowhead, e) consistent with prior TB infection
