Knowledge of normal and abnormal hilar and mediastinal anatomy as depicted by chest radiography is important for the practicing radiologist. This article is an illustrated review of some of the alterations of normal anatomy that can indicate signs of metastatic spread of bronchogenic carcinoma. Thorough analysis of conventional radiographs with recognition of normal variants and detection of abnormal alterations will expedite or obviate certain therapeutic options in patients with bronchogenic carcinoma.
对于执业放射科医生而言，了解胸部X线片所显示的正常和异常肺门及纵隔解剖结构非常重要。本文通过实例回顾了一些正常解剖结构的改变，这些改变可提示支气管肺癌转移扩散的征象。对传统X线片进行全面分析，识别正常变异并检测异常改变，将有助于加快或避免支气管肺癌患者的某些治疗选择。
