Overview
There are no MRI findings associated with pneumoconiosis but may be helpful to differentiate between other pathologies.
MRI
MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis by excluding other pathologies. For example: [1] [2]
- MRIs can differentiate between progressive massive fibrosis in pneumoconiosis with lung cancer.
- Progressive massive fibrosis would show low signal intensity while lung cancer shows high signal intensity.
