Figure 3. (A, B) In the axial image and the coronal reconstruction of the chest tomography with contrast, a mass with a soft tissue density is observed, which completely compromises the lumen of the intermediate bronchus and the right lower lobar, and partially compromises the lumen of the middle lobar bronchus with associated post-obstructive atelectasis. (C) Positron emission tomography shows the hypermetabolic mass of poorly defined margins, located in the upper segment of the right lower lobe, approximately 59×59×81 mm (APxTxL) (max SUV 18.6).
