Abstract

We report the MRI features and correlative pathologic findings of a lung cancer in a patient with progressive massive fibrosis (PMF). In this case, MRI was able to distinguish the lung cancer as a high signal intensity area, and the fibrotic mass as a low signal intensity area, on both T1-weighted and T2-weighted images when compared with muscle. MRI is potentially useful in distinguishing cancer tissue from PMF in patients with pneumoconiosis.

摘要

我们报告了一例进行性大块纤维化（PMF）患者肺癌的MRI特征及相关病理结果。在该病例中，与肌肉相比，在T1加权像和T2加权像上，MRI均能够将肺癌识别为高信号强度区域，而将纤维化肿块识别为低信号强度区域。MRI在区分尘肺病患者的癌组织与PMF方面可能具有潜在作用。
