Overview
On MRI, characteristic features for the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, include: pleural effusion assessment, guidance for biopsy of peripheral lung or mediastinal mass.
MRI
- Common features of MRI scan for the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, include:[1][2]
- Pleural effusion assessment
- Guidance for biopsy of peripheral lung or mediastinal mass
- May be useful in superior sulcus tumors to rule out brachial plexus involvement
- On MRI, there are no specific findings of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung[1][3]
- On MRI, there are no radiological signs of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung[2][4]
