Anterior chest wall non-traumatic diseases: a road map for the radiologist

Acta Biomed. 2020 Jul 13;91(8-S):43-50. doi: 10.23750/abm.v91i8-S.9972.

Abstract

The anterior chest wall (AWC) non-traumatic pathologies are largely underestimated, and early detection through imaging is becoming increasingly important. This paper aims to review the major non-traumatic ACW pathologies, with a particular interest in imaging features and differential diagnosis.
