Table 2.

Presence of lung abnormalities on computed tomography scan. The results were available for only 66 patients. Generalized bronchiectases were defined as bronchiectases in more than three lung lobes. The results of the extent of bronchiectasis, the extent of fibrosis and the extent of emphysema are given as no/localized/generalized.
