1.
A 60 years gentle man who was smoker is diagnosed as case of lung carcinoma on bronchial
brushings. On CT chest collapse of right lower lobe collapse is reported but the pulmonologist is
convinced that right lower lobe is not collapsed but is invaded by tumour. You are the
radiologist in that hospital. The physician consults you and MRI chest is planned by mutual
consenses.
To distinguish between collapsed lung from tumour the most important MR sequence is:
a) ADC mapping
b) DW sequence
c) FLAIR sequence
d) T1W sequence
e) T2 sequence

2. A 60 years gentle man who was smoker is diagnosed as case of lung carcinoma has severe chest
wall pain on right side. His treating physician suspects that the tumour has infiltrated the chest
wall. You are the radiologist in that hospital. The physician consults you and want to discuss with
you the most helpful examination to determine earlierst chest wall invasion.
Earliest chest wall invasion by tumour is best delineated on:
a) CT
b) Fluroscopy
c) MRI
d) Ultrasound
e) X-ray chest

3. A 60 years gentle man who was smoker is diagnosed as case of lung carcinoma has severe chest
wall pain on right side. His treating physician suspects that the tumour has infiltrated the chest
wall. You are the radiologist in that hospital. MRI of chest was performed which revealed T2
hyperintense signals in chest wall muscles. This is suggestive of chest wall invasion.
The other condition in which T2 hyper intense signal seen in chest wall muscles would be:
a) Congenital disease
b) Inflammatory disease
c) Metabolic disease
d) Vascular disease
e) Post traumatic sequelae
