The normal distribution of lymph nodes in the pulmonary hili is diagrammatically shown, with a typical computed tomographic (CT) demonstration of hilar lymphadenopathy. On the basis of observations in anatomic cross sections of cadaver lungs, the lymph nodes in the right lung can be divided into four principal groups (right upper lobe, interlobar, middle lobe, and lower lobe) and in the left lung into three principal groups (left upper lobe, interlobar, and lower lobe). Most of the hilar lymph nodes are situated along the bronchi in close relation with the pulmonary vascular branches. Because of this close proximity, contrast-enhanced CT images are indispensable for precise CT interpretation of a hilar lymphadenopathy.
肺门淋巴结的正常分布以示意图展示，并配有典型的肺门淋巴结肿大的计算机断层扫描（CT）图像。基于对尸体肺解剖横断面的观察，右肺的淋巴结可分为四个主要组（右上叶、叶间、中叶和下叶），左肺的淋巴结可分为三个主要组（左上叶、叶间和下叶）。大多数肺门淋巴结沿支气管分布，与肺血管分支关系密切。由于这种紧密相邻的关系，增强CT图像对于准确进行肺门淋巴结肿大的CT解读必不可少。
