The pleura may be affected by primary tumors or metastatic spread of intrathoracic or extrathoracic neoplasms. Primary pleural neoplasms represent ∼10% of all pleural tumors, and malignant lesions are more common than benign lesions. The most common primary tumors include malignant pleural mesothelioma and solitary fibrous tumor. Although pleural neoplasms may initially be evaluated with computed tomography (CT) and/or fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/CT, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is complementary to these other imaging modalities for disease staging and evaluation of patients. In this article, we discuss the etiology, clinical presentation, and imaging of pleural neoplasms, with specific attention given to the role of MR imaging.
胸膜可能受到原发性肿瘤或胸内或胸外肿瘤转移扩散的影响。原发性胸膜肿瘤约占所有胸膜肿瘤的10%，恶性病变比良性病变更常见。最常见的原发性肿瘤包括恶性胸膜间皮瘤和孤立性纤维瘤。虽然胸膜肿瘤最初可能通过计算机断层扫描（CT）和/或氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描（PET）/CT进行评估，但磁共振（MR）成像对于疾病分期和患者评估是这些其他成像方式的补充。在本文中，我们讨论胸膜肿瘤的病因、临床表现和影像学表现，并特别关注MR成像的作用。
