Clinical aspects of coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis
Abstract
Coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis are two important respiratory disorders that result from the inhalation of respirable particles in mining. This chapter focuses on the clinical aspects of these disorders, including their pathogenesis and pathology, and approaches to their evaluation and management.
