Abstract

Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to describe the main features of the aging chest, studied through different imaging modalities.

Recent findings: Aging-related changes of the respiratory system are inevitable. Therefore, it is mandatory to be familiar with the para-physiological changes that occurs, in order to avoid inappropriate interpretation of radiological findings that put patients at risk of over or undertreatment.

Summary: The role of the radiologist is fundamental in evaluating aging-related processes affecting the respiratory system and in distinguishing them from frank diseases.

胸部影像中呼吸系统的衰老相关发现:珍珠和陷阱。

综述目的:本综述的目的是描述老化胸部的主要特征，通过不同的成像方式进行研究。最近的研究发现:与衰老相关的呼吸系统变化是不可避免的。因此，必须熟悉所发生的生理外变化，以避免对放射学结果的不恰当解释，从而使患者面临治疗过度或治疗不足的风险。总结:放射科医生的作用是评估影响呼吸系统的衰老相关过程并将其与坦率的疾病区分开来的基础。

期刊介绍： Current Radiology Reports aims to offer expert review articles on the most significant recent developments in the field of radiology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions, the journal intends to serve all those who use imaging technologies and related techniques to diagnose and treat disease. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the field. Section Editors select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An Editorial Board of more than 20 internationally diverse members reviews the annual table of contents, ensures that topics include emerging research, and suggests topics of special importance to their country/region. Topics covered may include abdominal imaging (including virtual colonoscopy); cardiac imaging; clinical MRI; dual-source CT; interventional radiology; minimal invasive procedures and high-frequency focused ultrasound; musculoskeletal imaging; neuroimaging; nuclear medicine; pediatric imaging; PET, PET-CT, and PET-MRI; radiation exposure and reduction; translational molecular imaging; and ultrasound.
