Lack of understanding of the underlying pathology can lead to misinterpretation of radiologic images and the potential to overlook important complications such as a neoplastic recurrence.

Objectives :
• Identify imaging characteristics of lesions involving the chest and cardiovascular system that allow for narrowing of the differential diagnosis
• Illustrate how the underlying pathology of the lesion contributes to its imaging characteristics
• Highlight those chest diseases in which radiologic imaging is key for accurate diagnosis.
