The number and size of pulmonary vessels are also diminished, resulting in a small ipsilateral hilum. (Ref: Dahnert p. 533) 51. d. Adenoid cystic carcinoma Adenoid cystic carcinoma is the second most common malignancy of the central airways after squamous cell cancer and often presents as an endoluminal mass with an intact mucosa. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is rare. Benign tumours are mostly of mesenchymal origin and are rare. Carcinoids in these locations are usually of the typical type. (Ref: Park CM et al.

315) 35. c. A TI of 200 ms would nullify the signal intensity from the normal myocardium After an initial LV function study, gadolinium is administered and imaging is commenced 100 minutes later in the same spatial location as the preceding LV study. Inversion recovery pulse is used to nullify the signal from the normal myocardium with a TI of approximately 200 ms. The healthy myocardium appears dark, whilst the ischaemic myocardium appears bright. Too short a TI results in loss of signal from both abnormal and normal myocardium, whilst too long a TI would result in loss of contrast.
