Advanced imaging technology has greatly improved the practice of
thoracic surgery in the past 35 years. Among many other benefits,
the advances decreased the rate of futile thoracotomy for lung
cancer from more than 20% in the 1970s to the current incidence of
only a few percent.? This issue of Thoracic Surgery Clinics
provides updates about recent advances in imaging of thoracic
diseases, and will help practicing thoracic surgeons understand how
to best frame requests so that optimally useful information emerges
from an examination.
