Abstract

Many lung diseases, first, tumors, are smoking-related, and it is very likely to find more than one pattern in the same patient. Airspace enlargement with fibrosis (AEF) is one of them, but it has not been deeply understood or studied yet. In fact, we think that it might still be wrongly assimilated with other conditions that have different radiological features altogether and different prognoses. This pictorial essay is aimed at pointing out AEF so that radiologists and pulmonologists get acquainted with it and use the proper terminology, as AEF might not be that rare.

当肺气肿遇上纤维化：图文并茂的论文。

许多肺部疾病（首先是肿瘤）都与吸烟有关，而且很可能在同一个病人身上发现不止一种模式。气室扩大伴纤维化（AEF）就是其中之一，但人们对它的了解和研究还不够深入。事实上，我们认为它可能仍然被错误地与其他具有不同放射学特征和不同预后的疾病等同起来。这篇图文并茂的文章旨在指出 AEF，以便放射科医生和肺科医生了解它，并使用正确的术语，因为 AEF 可能并不那么罕见。
