My husband went to Dubai for their job. For residence visa he need to fitness report. In fitness report, they gave his blood samples and chest x-rays. In x-rays, they found scars then they goes to another test. All test are going normal but In the skin test, 14 mm spot Was found. The final report was that he was unfit for dubai because his x-rays are not good, scar was found. Doctor said that you are healthy and fit but you have old Tb found.

Hi,
Chest x-ray and Mountouch test showed old healed pulmonary tuberculosis.
After cure of TB there might be fibrosis in lungs which remains permentally and cast shadow on x-ray.
This fibrosis is ever lasting and can not resolve with medicine.
Ok and take care.
