Intrapulmonary lymph nodes: thin-section CT findings, pathological findings, and CT differential diagnosis from pulmonary metastatic nodules.
We compared the thin-section CT findings of 11 intrapulmonary lymph nodes with pathological findings and evaluated the possibility of CT scan differential diagnosis from pulmonary metastatic nodules. First, we retrospectively reviewed CT scan and pathological findings of intrapulmonary lymph nodes. The median size of these nodules was 6.2 mm. The nodules appeared round (n=3) or angular (n=8) in...
متن کاملThin-Section CT Findings of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Diseases: Comparison Between Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Complex and Mycobacterium abscessus Infection
We aimed to compare the CT findings of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary diseases caused by Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) and Mycobacterium abscessus. Two chest radiologists analyzed retrospectively the thin-section CT findings of 51 patients with MAC and 36 with M. abscessus infection in terms of patterns and forms of lung lesions. No significant difference was found be...
متن کاملThin-Section CT Findings of Arc-Welders' Pneumoconiosis
OBJECTIVE To describe the thin-section CT findings of arc-welders' pneumoconiosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-five arc-welders with a three to 30 (mean, 15)- year history of exposure underwent thin-section CT scanning. The extent of abnormalities detected was correlated with the severity of dyspnea and pulmonary function tests. For comparison, images of 43 smoking males (mean 25 pack-year) ...
متن کاملMalignant versus benign nodules at CT screening for lung cancer: comparison of thin-section CT findings.
PURPOSE To evaluate thin-section computed tomographic (CT) characteristics of malignant nodules on the basis of overall appearance (pure ground-glass opacity [GGO], mixed GGO, or solid opacity) in comparison with the appearance of benign nodules. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional review board approval and patient consent were obtained. Follow-up diagnostic CT was performed in 747 suspicious...
متن کاملUsual Interstitial Pneumonia and Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia: Serial Thin-Section CT Findings Correlated with Pulmonary Function
OBJECTIVE We wanted to demonstrate and compare the serial high-resolution CTs (HRCT) and the pulmonary function test (PFT) findings of the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and the non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). MATERIALS AND METHODS The serial HRCT scans and the PFT results were retrospectively analysed and compared for 35 patients having UIP without significant honeycombing (U...
