suspecting sarcoidosis next step-
cxr
CHEM 14, UA
PFT

ACE LEVEL

GAMMA SCAN

BRONCHOSCOPY TBLB
its ace and cal 1st then cxr
sorry lascrusesdoc, How can you have a ace and calcium level without getting to know that it is a case of sarcoidosis without an cxr.
The ace and calcium levels are after the cxr.More over these levels are not specific enough for sarcoidosis.
hey lascrusesdoc,what happened
thats whats given in kaplan ques,sorry was not in front of comp
but MTB says 1'st do cxr and then all other tests
it is clinical diagnosis , lacrus, i might disagree with u about ace first, i think next step cxr, if asymp, then observe
yup CXR 1st is correct
