    A woman from Hangzhou, 58 years old, came to the multidisciplinary joint clinic of Professor Ma Shenglin of Hangzhou Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine a few days ago to see pulmonary nodule.


    Let's take a look at her chest CT image:

    The beginning of the lesion is not very obvious, only slightly different

    The imaging features of this layer are more obvious: orange arrows indicate blood vessels entering the lesions; brick arrows indicate shallow lobulation signs on the surface of the lesions; red arrows indicate that the outline of the lesion and the border of the tumor and lung are clear, and the density is slightly uneve.


    The above picture shows that the blood vessels pass through the edge of the lesion, and the overall outline is clear

    The above picture is already the edge of the lesion, only a little shadow of the light ground glass

    Imaging Impressions and Clinical Thinking:

    Such a left upper lobe ground-glass nodule, which has not been absorbed and improved after follow-up, has the following general characteristics:persistent;pure ground-glass density, but slightly uneven density;vascular access and blood vessels passing through the lesion; .


    Final result:

    After careful consideration, a certain A decided to undergo surger.
