Diffusion-weighted imaging had significantly higher sensitivity than fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in distinguishing malignant from benign pulmonary nodes and masses. The sensitivity of positron emission tomography decreased as the percentage of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma in adenocarcinoma increased.
