Computed Tomography Analysis Based on Imaging Manifestations of Pulmonary Lymphoma
Objective: The imaging manifestations of lung lymphoma are complex and diverse. This paper discusses the pathological features of lung lymphoma and improves the clinical and radiologist’s understanding of the disease. Methods: Retrospective analysis of chest computed tomography (CT) image data of 58 patients with pulmonary lymphoma confirmed by clinical and histopathology. Results: CT diagnosis of 35 cases of pulmonary lymphoma, including 13 cases of mass nodular type, 15 cases of pneumonia consolidation type, 7 cases of mixed type, and the diagnostic accuracy rate was 60.34%. Airborne bronchial signs, normal vascular crossing signs, coexisting signs of multiple types of lesions, cross-lobe distribution signs, and ground glass signs are typical CT signs of pulmonary lymphoma. The average value of CT vital signs changes of the five types of lung lymphomas is 18%. The scan completion rate is 81%. The number of patients with five types of lung lymphoma were 17 cases of age <35 years old, and 18 cases for age >35 years old, with a balanced age distribution. Conclusions: CT examination is helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of pulmonary lymphoma.
