Serial changes in consolidative lung lesions in a 63-year-old female with Mycobacterium abscessus complex lung disease (MABC-LD) in the treatment success group (with microbiological conversion). a Initial CT (section thickness, 5 mm, in axial plane) revealed multifocal patchy consolidation in the right upper lobe. For the consolidation extension scoring in this patient, involvement of one segment of RUL earned 1 point; involvement of all segments of RML (not shown) earned 3 points; and involvement of 1/2 segment of the lingula LUL (not shown) earned 1 point. This totals 5 points. Therefore, the final consolidation extension score is 2. b The consolidation had mostly resolved at the follow-up scan after treatment
