In 84 patients with suspected intrathoracic neoplasms we compared the accuracy of conventional radiography, 55 degrees posterior oblique tomography, and contrast-enhanced dynamic incremental computed tomography (CT) in evaluation of the pulmonary hilum. We found dynamic incremental CT to be better than either conventional radiography or oblique tomography in hilar evaluation. In addition, significant information was detected in extrahilar and extramediastinal locations by CT in 21% of patients. This study, unlike earlier reports, indicates a role for CT in hilar evaluation.
在84例疑似胸内肿瘤患者中,我们比较了传统X线摄影、55度后斜位体层摄影及对比增强动态增量计算机断层扫描(CT)在评估肺门方面的准确性。我们发现动态增量CT在肺门评估方面优于传统X线摄影或斜位体层摄影。此外,CT在21%的患者中于肺门以外和纵隔以外部位检测到了重要信息。与早期报告不同,本研究表明CT在肺门评估中具有一定作用。
