Abstract:
Objective To analyse the imaging characteristics of solitary pulmonary nodules(SPNs) with the spiral CT, and detection clinical values of the definitive diagnosis to SPNs. Methods 32 cases of SPNs were identified by spiral CT, 9 cases of them were examinated by enhancement scanning. The diffrentical imaging features were analyzed. Results 24 cases were malignant in imaging(18 cases were identified), 8 cases were benign in imaging(6 cases were identified). 15 cases of malignant SPNs by clinical identified were smooth at edge; 6 cases of benign SPNs by clinical identified. 5 cases of them were anomaly;4 cases of them were burr;2 cases of them were bronchial sign and vesiclat sign.6 cases of the SPNs were calcified. 6 cases of SPNs(9 cases with contrasting) were benign in imaging, 3 cases of them were malignant in imaging. Conclusion The differential diagnostic of SPNs is difficult by spiral CT, but enhancement scanning and epidemiology combined with spiral CT is very valuable for definitive diagnosis.
