Abstract
Optimal clinical management of patients with focal lung pathology necessitates thorough familiarity with basic concepts in imaging. Over the past decade, radiologic evaluation has undergone rapid change, reflecting considerable growth in imaging technology. As this article discusses and illustrates at length, improvements in computed tomography technology in particular have resulted in a significant alteration in our approach to both the diagnosis and treatment of patients with focal lung disease.
