Abstract:
Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma is rare. The common locations of extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma include the paravertebral region, lower extremities, and chest wall. Primary pulmonary Ewing sarcoma is extremely rare. Because Ewing sarcoma is sensitive to specialized chemotherapy regimens, accurate diagnosis is therefore critical. The diagnosis of pulmonary Ewing sarcoma can be challenging and need immunohistochemical and cytogenetic analyses. Imaging findings of pulmonary Ewing sarcoma have been rarely reported. This report describes a case of primary pulmonary Ewing sarcoma with immunohistochemical, cytogenetic, CT, and FDG PET/CT findings.

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
