Computed tomography and magnetic resonance findings in lipoid pneumonia.

Open full text 42 citations

Abstract

A case of exogenous lipoid pneumonia was documented by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Although strongly suggesting the presence of fat on T1 weighted images, magnetic resonance does not produce images specific for this condition. Computed tomography is the best imaging modality for its diagnosis.
