Hello Friends,
here I am trying to initiate a new course with fresh cases. I hope that all of you are well, and doing your best during this horrible pandemia.
My first case was shown to me a couple of days ago by Dr Teresa Lago Muñoz, a young radiology resident at Hospital Dr Peset.
Dr Lago tells me that this is a 48 year-old man, heavy smoker for the last 30 years.

José Vilar and Friends Case 32 (Update: Solution + See you in Autumn!)
Dear friends, this case was also provided by my good friend Dr Alberto Villanueva (SURREY AND SUSSEX HEALTHCARE NHS TRUST).
It-s good do get some help from other centers in this time of distress when the activity is basically centered on COVID 19. But, indeed other pathologies are there and will be present and we, as good alert radiologists must look carefully for pertinent findings always.
This is a 57 y/o male patient with known oncologic pathology ( jaw and neck neoplasms) that obliges to periodic examinations. He presents (Nov 2018) with weight loss.
