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.
