Extensive thin-section CT abnormalities indicative of fibroproliferative changes were independently predictive of poor prognosis in patients with a clinically early stage of ARDS.

Although various chronic cystic lung diseases often have a characteristic appearance that allows their distinction on high-resolution CT, considerable overlap exists among the CT findings. Therefore, lung biopsy is often required for a definitive diagnosis.

The presence of a smooth contour, round shape, and capsule is highly suggestive of a type A tumor. Foci of low signal intensity in the mass on T2-weighted images and mediastinal lymphadenopathy are highly suggestive of thymic carcinomas.
