Chest radiological plane films and traditional tomographic and CT scans of the mediastinum were correlated with pathological findings of the thymus following thymectomy in 61 cases with myasthenia gravis. The authors suggest that since it is difficult to differentiate the normal thymus or thymic hyperplasia from thymoma, thymoma can be more easily diagnosed in older than in younger patients.
对61例重症肌无力患者胸腺切除术后的胸部X线平片、传统断层扫描及纵隔CT扫描结果与胸腺病理检查结果进行了对比。作者认为，由于正常胸腺或胸腺增生与胸腺瘤难以鉴别，因此相较于年轻患者，老年患者的胸腺瘤更容易诊断。
