[Role of imaging technics in the identification, characterization and staging of lung neoplasms].
The findings in different imaging techniques in the diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma are discussed in this report. Conventional radiology is useful for diagnosis, but is insufficient for characterising and assessing the extension of neoplastic masses of the lung. CT and MR imaging are not essential for the diagnosis and characterization of these lesions, but they certainly allow a more accurate evaluation of staging than normal X-ray examination.
