The findings of conventional radiography were compared with the results of computer tomography in 91 patients with histologically confirmed lesions of the thoracic wall. In 22 (24%) CT gave no additional information. In 67 (74%), CT supplied additional information or narrowed the differential diagnosis. Particularly important on computer tomography was the enhancement brought about by intravenous contrast medium in malignant tumours of the thorax or thoracic wall. CT should be used in preference to conventional tomography in the investigation of lesions of the thoracic wall.
对91例经组织学证实胸壁病变的患者，将传统X线摄影结果与计算机断层扫描结果进行了比较。22例（24%）患者的CT未提供额外信息。67例（74%）患者的CT提供了额外信息或缩小了鉴别诊断范围。在计算机断层扫描中，静脉注射造影剂对胸部或胸壁恶性肿瘤产生的强化尤为重要。在胸壁病变检查中，应优先使用CT而非传统断层扫描。
