    Great video! I just had a ct scan of my neck and the report says "There is anterior superior mediastinal nodules consistent with thymic tissue." 😢 worried it's lymphoma or another cancer.

    What does .. "There is a triangular density in the anterior mediastinum which likely represents residual thymic tissue which is unchanged." Mean?

      I have almsot the same wording. Still havent heard from doctor. Mine says "Hazy soft tissue density in anterior superior medastinum which may represent residual/reactive thymic tissue

      Just found this, hope it helps!
      A small amount of residual thymic tissue in the anterior mediastinum is a normal finding in young people and can be present throughout a person's life. The thymus is a lymphoid organ that's largest in infancy and is responsible for producing and maturing T-cells until puberty. As people age, the thymus shrinks and becomes more triangular in shape, and fat replaces glandular tissue. By age 40, the thymus is almost completely replaced with fat, leaving only a small amount of residual tissue.

      This approach represents personal refinements I developed over the last 15 years upon a philosophy towards anterior mediastinal masses espoused by Dr. Wallace T. Miller, Jr. - one of my mentors at Penn - and published in his seminal textbook:
      Miller, Jr. W. T. (2006) Diagnostic Thoracic Imaging. McGraw-Hill.

    Can pneumonia be mistaken for a anterior mediastinal mass on CT scan

      Although I imagine it could happen on occasion on a chest x-ray, it would be uncommon with CT imaging.
