A 33-year-old man with a testicular tumor and multiple lung metastases. (a) CT fluoroscopy image obtained while the patient was in the prone position shows Lipiodol (arrow) marking near the pulmonary lesion in the lower lobe of the left lung (arrowhead). (b) CT image obtained 16 days after surgery shows GGO lesions. Dense areas corresponding to migrated Lipiodol are evident in some of the GGOs (arrows). Such lesions are seen in the entire right lung. (c) CT image obtained after treatment with antibiotics shows almost complete disappearance of GGO lesions. There is still a high density spot that is a focus of residual Lipiodol (arrow).
