The ability of computed tomography of the lungs to detect pulmonary nodules was compared with that of conventional chest roentgenography and whole-lung tomography. Computed tomography detected more pulmonary nodules in 10 of 29 patients studied with both computed tomography and whole-lung tomography. Computed tomography of the lungs is the most accurate noninvasive method available for detecting pulmonary nodules.
将肺部计算机断层扫描检测肺结节的能力与传统胸部X线摄影及全肺断层扫描的能力进行了比较。在29例同时接受计算机断层扫描和全肺断层扫描的患者中，有10例计算机断层扫描检测出了更多的肺结节。肺部计算机断层扫描是目前可用于检测肺结节的最准确的非侵入性方法。
