What does .. "There is a triangular density in the anterior mediastinum which likely represents residual thymic tissue which is unchanged." Mean?

This approach represents personal refinements I developed over the last 15 years upon a philosophy towards anterior mediastinal masses espoused by Dr. Wallace T. Miller, Jr. - one of my mentors at Penn - and published in his seminal textbook: Miller, Jr. W. T. (2006) Diagnostic Thoracic Imaging. McGraw-Hill. a.co/d/6tUGamn

Can pneumonia be mistaken for a anterior mediastinal mass on CT scan

[@radiologyframeworks]

Although I imagine it could happen on occasion on a chest x-ray, it would be uncommon with CT imaging.
