The latest premortem chest roentgenogram on 17 patients with known metastatic malignant melanoma was examined and the results were compared with the findings in the chest at autopsy. In nine of the 17, disease not visible on the roentgenogram was found at autopsy. Preliminary data would indicate that a significant number of these metastases could have been identified premortem by other radiographic modalities, e.g., tomography.
对17例已知有转移性恶性黑色素瘤患者的最新死前胸部X光片进行了检查,并将结果与尸检时胸部的发现进行了比较。在这17例患者中,有9例在尸检时发现X光片上不可见的病变。初步数据表明,这些转移灶中有相当一部分可以通过其他影像学检查方法(如体层摄影术)在死前被识别出来。
