In order to diagnose of the pathological type of pulmonary occupied lesions by non-invasive imaging, 30 patients were scanned with chest MRI using Siemens 3T scanner. The T1 mapping sequences were used before and after the injection of contrast agent, and the extracellular volume (ECV) was calculated. The statistical differences of ECV between squamous, adenocarcinoma and small cell carcinoma were analyzed by single-factor variance, and there were significant statistical differences (P<0.05).
