本文综述了与石棉暴露有关的胸膜和肺实质疾病的影像学、临床、病理和流行病学特征。特别讨论了以下几个方面：（1）胸膜斑--X线平片和计算机体层摄影的检测，与斑相似的正常和异常密度，1980年ILO U/C分类，最近关于斑的流行病学资料，包括与癌和间皮瘤的关系;（2）弥漫性胸膜增厚;（3）良性石棉胸腔积液;（4）间皮瘤--强调在诊断、分期、治疗和预后方面的最新进展;（5）实质纤维化--发病机制，与纤维暴露、斑块和癌的关系;（6）支气管癌;（7）圆形肺不张--最近观察到其与胸膜增厚的关系。放射学在石棉相关疾病的法医学方面的作用进行了简要审查。
This paper reviews the radiographic, clinical, pathologic, and epidemiological features of pleural and pulmonary parenchymal disorders which have been related to asbestos exposure. In particular, the following are discussed: (1) pleural plaques--radiographic detection by plain films and computed tomography, normal and abnormal densities which may mimic plaques, the 1980 ILO U/C classification, recent epidemiological data on plaques including their relationship to carcinoma and mesothelioma; (2) diffuse pleural thickening; (3) benign asbestos pleural effusions; (4) mesothelioma--emphasizing recent advances in diagnosis, staging, therapy, and prognosis; (5) parenchymal fibrosis--pathogenesis, relationship to fiber exposure, plaques, and carcinoma; (6) bronchogenic carcinoma; (7) rounded atelectasis--recent observations on its association with pleural thickening. A role of radiology in medicolegal aspects of asbestos-related disease is briefly examined.
