Computed tomography of the chest is found to be a useful method in selected cases. Lipomas of the chest and mediastinum can be specifically diagnosed. Extent of malignant pulmonary processes can be assessed for resectability, since it can detect mediastinal nodes not properly seen in conventional chest tomography. Computed tomography of the chest is indicated in these two diagnostic problems.
胸部计算机断层扫描在特定病例中是一种有用的方法。胸部和纵隔脂肪瘤可得到明确诊断。恶性肺部病变的范围可通过其评估可切除性,因为它能检测出传统胸部断层扫描中未能清晰显示的纵隔淋巴结。胸部计算机断层扫描适用于这两个诊断问题。
