The results of following up 598 patients diagnosed as having pleural exudate were used to analyze the potentialities of complex radiation and clinical differential diagnoses of this abnormality. The authors identified 4 most common nosological entities (tuberculosis, pleuropneumonia, cancer, mesothelioma) among patients of diagnostic hospitals. The diagnostic algorithm should be derived by taking into account the current techniques applicable to each disease form. With this, valid diagnosis may be made in 98.5% of cases.
