RESUMO
Objective To study the co-relation of radiological and histopathological features of lung cancer. Methods X-ray CT and histopathological features of 36 cases of lung cancer were analyzed retrospectively. Results High-density mass with strengthened edge was found to be paralleled with lung atery at lung gate in 6 cases. As a result, bronchial tubes became narrow with mucus in it. Squamous carcinoma tissues of 22 cases were showed growing within bronchial tubes. Local lung emphysema in early stage obstructive pneumonia and 19 cases of lung collapse in mid/late stage(86.4%) were brought out because of narrow cavity of bronchi. Megaly lymph nodes were seen by mediastina window in 12 cases. Peripheral mass with leaf-like edge were found in 8 cases,and the diameter of each was less than 2cm,while irregular deviated cavitative was seen in one case. Conlusion It is suggested that close combination of X-ray CT and histopathological can improve the accurate rate of diagnosis in lung cancer.
