Progress rate from xray
My dad was diagnosed with lung TB in March and has been on the prescribed medication ever since. I'm attaching 2 xrays one from march and one from May.
Could you please assure if it's a good progress or not. It's been 2 months since tb meds and the regimen is 9 month long.
Please share some views. He feels absolutely fine now and has no issue whatsoever. Just for reassurance

You have to check whether he is taking treatment for DSTB or MDR TB. Chest x ray shows resolution in right upper zone but persistence of lesion in right lower zone. You have to re-evaluate after one month if patient is clinically improved
