title: [Radiologic diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma].
abstract: The staging classifications and basic characteristics of five cell types of bronchogenic carcinoma, as well as the sensitivity and specificity of plain radiography, CT and MRI in the staging of central and peripheral bronchogenic carcinoma have been presented. In conclusion, it was emphasized that CT, US and MRI have considerably improved diagnostics of bronchogenic carcinoma, although there are still difficulties regarding their sensitivity and specificity in the assessment of malignant mediastinal and hilar adenopathy, pleural and chest wall infiltration and tissue categorisation of the solitary pulmonary nodule. Finally, two schemes for evaluation of the patients with central bronchogenic carcinoma and solitary pulmonary nodule have been recommended.
