[@ajazmalik580]

It is said that for evaluating lung hamartoma, presence of macroscopic fat should be relied upon, not on the basis of HU units because volume averaging can give false low HU

[@Radquarters]

Indeed, good point!

[@kishorkumarb3192]

Hi sir, in the 1st case how can we differentiate from lymphoma from thymoma.?

[@Radquarters]

Good question; their imaging appearance can overlap, but mediastinal lymphoma is typically more lobulated and confluent than thymoma which often presents as a rounded thymic mass off midline. Lymphoma also tends to have pericardial involvement more often than thymoma.

[@naeemasr5022]

Respected sir when pulmonary hamartoma DOesNOT show fat on ct….than how we proceed further for its diagnosis???????

[@Radquarters]

Lipid poor pulmonary hamartomas can be difficult to diagnose on imaging. Follow-up imaging to show stability or biopsy may be needed.

[@naeemasr5022]

If pulmonary hamartoma donot give fat look on ct…..than how u proceed further for its diagnosis???????

[@Radquarters]

Lipid poor pulmonary hamartomas can be difficult to diagnose on imaging. Follow-up imaging to show stability or biopsy may be needed.

[@naeemasr5022]

Respected sir what’s mean by topogram??

[@Radquarters]

Also known as a scout view, a limited x-ray used to plan the scan range for the CT.

[@naeemasr5022]

Sir u mean lymphoma narrowed down a structure but never occluded it????

[@Radquarters]

Exactly!

Hey there Mr. Dan! First of all, thank you for your great work! I would like to ask, as an inexperienced student, would it maybe be more appropriate if we got a bit more details as to why the study was done? I think it would be of great help in understanding what we're looking for. Again, I'm a newbie so please don't take this as an offence in case I'm wrong :) Thank you once again!

[@Radquarters]

Hi Giorgi, thank you for watching! You are correct, clinical history is incredibly important when interpreting imaging studies. However, on radiology practical exams and even sometimes in the real world, we often only get limited history. For these cases, I try to give just enough clinical info to make the diagnosis, as too much history may bias you towards one diagnosis or another :)
