Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is possible for the infiltrates to disappear partially or completely. Sometimes there is also scarring of the lung which may be permanent in PTB patients. This does not signify persisting active infection. To say that there is no active PTB, two X rays taken 6 months apart should show no new infiltrates.
