Reviews
Focal pulmonary opacities can be broadly categorized as nodules, masses, or focal parenchymal airspace disease, but their diagnosis is often challenging. Computed tomography (CT), supplemented by thin section or high-resolution CT imaging, is better than chest radiography in the determination of the characteristics of these lesions.
