A tumor of the lung featuring increased pulmonary arterial perfusion.
An area of relatively increased tracer activity on a perfusion lung scan was found in the same location as a radiodense lung mass. The lesion responsible for this unusual combination of findings was identified after lobectomy and tissue examination to be poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma.
