| description | Chest MRI is a valuable tool for assessing chest structures, particularly when CT produces
inconclusive results. MRI provides exceptional soft-tissue resolution and enables the determination
of lesion location, size, and invasion into neighboring structures. Its applications
span various clinical scenarios, including the differentiation of non-tumorous and tumorous
conditions in the mediastinum or pleura, planning of surgical interventions and treatments
for such tumors, evaluation of post-treatment recurrence, staging of lung cancer,
and diagnosis of progressive massive fibrosis. Despite the technical hurdles posed by cardiac
and respiratory motion, advancements in sequence and scan techniques have enabled
high-quality chest MRI examinations to be conducted across diverse clinical settings. This
pictorial essay aims to offer comprehensive resources and strategies for radiologists to integrate
chest MRI into clinical practice and to overcome its present challenges. |
