Comprehensive Evaluation of Pulmonary Masses Using Multi-detector CT: Correlating Morphological Features With CT-Guided Histopathological Findings for Enhanced Diagnostic Accuracy

MDCT is a highly effective tool in the evaluation of lung masses, providing critical information that aids in distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions. When combined with CT-guided biopsy, it offers a reliable method for obtaining diagnostic tissue samples, with a high degree of accuracy and a low complication rate. The study underscores the importance of integrating imaging and histopathological findings in the management of thoracic lesions, ultimately enhancing diagnostic precision and informing appropriate clinical interventions.

Abstract

MDCT is a highly effective tool in the evaluation of lung masses, providing critical information that aids in distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions. When combined with CT-guided biopsy, it offers a reliable method for obtaining diagnostic tissue samples, with a high degree of accuracy and a low complication rate. The study underscores the importance of integrating imaging and histopathological findings in the management of thoracic lesions, ultimately enhancing diagnostic precision and informing appropriate clinical interventions.
