Results 30 cases can be divided into three types: acute (9 cases), chronic (11 cases) and hematogenous lung abscess (10 cases), they can divided into two types (lump, pneumonia-like) according to development phase of pulmonary abscess, CT characteristics: Conventional atypical pulmonary abscess showed as clear boundary, the hole wall was smooth and full, mass-type image characteristics showed as: Around the lesions were slender burr, spinous process and shallow points leaves, lymph gland increased or calcified, surrounding lung field was clear, pneumonialike image feature showed as blurred edge, cord funicular shadow, in this scan, pneumonia-like was more seen in local exudative lesions and pleural thickness adhesion. Conclusion Vomica exists or not and exudative changes are important CT results on diagnosing and identifying diagnosis.
