A 65-year-old woman presents with palpitations and a heart

murmur. Which of the following features are more in keeping

with an atrial myxoma rather than thrombus as demonstrated
on CT?
A. Prolapse through the mitral valve on CT
B. The presence of calcification
C. The low attenuation of the lesion
D. A lack of enhancement
E. A smooth surface of the lesion
29. Plain radiographs of a previously well 60-year-old man with
lower limb pain show lamellar periosteal reaction in the
diametaphyseal regions. Bone scintigraphy demonstrates
symmetrical increased uptake along the cortical margins in the
diametaphyseal regions. What is the most likely underlying
thoracic cause?
A. Pulmonary haemangioma
B. Pleural fibroma
C. TB
D. Blastomycosis
E. Malignant mesothelioma
30. The chest radiograph of a 35-year-old male smoker, performed
for immigration purposes, shows hyperlucency of the entire
right lung, with a small ipsilateral hilum. Lung markings
are seen to the periphery. An expiratory film performed
immediately after reveals air trapping. Which is the most
likely diagnosis?
A. Hypogenetic lung syndrome
B. MacLeod syndrome
C. Unilateral proximal obstruction of the right pulmonary
artery
D. Bronchial obstruction
E. Unilateral bullae

cancer?

D. Malignant pleural effusion
E. Invasion of the vertebral body
21. A 78-year-old male smoker with hospital admission 2 months
ago for a dense left Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) cerebral
infarct presents. He has a 3 week history of low grade fevers
and weight loss. Chest radiograph reveals new left lower lobe
consolidation with areas of cavitation and air fluid levels,
but no hilar lymphadenopathy. Which is the most likely
diagnosis?
A. Hospital acquired pneumonia with lung abscess
B. Bronchogenic carcinoma
C. Bronchoalveolar cell carcinoma
D. Traumatic contusion with lung cysts
E. Aspiration with anaerobic pneumonia
A 47-year-old female Caucasian smoker presents with
persistent cough and haemoptysis. CT shows a 2.2cm soft
tissue mass in the left lower lobe with coarse calcific foci
and no mediastinal, hilar or axillary lymphadenopathy. A
small endobronchial lesion is also seen in the left lower lobe
bronchus. What is the most likely diagnosis?
A. Bronchogenic carcinoma
B. Pulmonary TB
C. Lymphoma
D. Fibrosing mediastinits
E. Bronchial carcinoid

malignant rather than benign pleural disease?
