Abstract:
      Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of multi-slice computer tomography (MSCT) in solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN). Methods: Contrastive analysis of the differences of CT signs between benign and malignant SPN. Results: The typical sign of pleural indentation was a reliable sign for lung cancers. Vacuole sign suggested lung cancer highly. Blood vessels cluster involving the vein alone had big opportunity to lung cancer. Type I tumor-bronchial relation was the most common relation in lung cancers. Type V tumor–bronchial relation was the most common relation in benign SPN. Conclusion: MSCT had a very high diagnostic value in SPN.
