Popis: A 38-year-old woman was referred to our hospital following the discovery of a right hilar mass on chest radiograph. Retrospectively, a hilar mass could be seen on a chest X-ray which had been obtained 5 years earlier. A coronal dynamic inversion recovery turbo-FLASH gadolinium-enhanced sequence was performed, demonstrating the right lesion which enhanced during the systemic arterial phase indicating an arterial supply from the bronchial arterial circulation. The surgical and pathological findings were a bronchial carcinoid tumor, with foci of bone formation.
