Hello dear

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query for your father in details .

* There may be signs of old healed tuberculosis on the CT scan and ESR
raised may be a finding from lot many conditions , it is not the
diagnostic of the active tuberculosis .

* Strongly recommended to consult with CT report as scanned copy
in attachment for further precise evaluation and guidance .

Hope this will help you for sure .

Wishing your father fine recovery .
Feel free to ask any further doubts .
