Dental Technician’s Pneumoconiosis

The presence of Vitallium and its chemical stability in bronchoalveolar lavage and lung several years after cessation of exposure confirm the resistance of this alloy to corrosion by body fluids, and suggest that Cr-Co-Mo alloys play a role in its pathogenesis.

Mineralogical analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage in talc pneumoconiosis.

It is suggested that bronchoalveolar lavage can confirm exposure to talc and provide information about the heterogeneity of inhaled dust.
