A member asked:
How often can thymoma be seen on 2 view chest x ray. ? what about an unenhanced ct of chest ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A standard chest X-ray would have insufficient resolution to exclude small intrathoracic soft tissue masses, and far better would be through the use of a CAT scan or MRI approaches.
