Adenocarcinoma in situ is an early form of lung cancer confined to the cells lining the air sacs, without having spread to surrounding tissue. It may cause no symptoms and is found unexpectedly. An MRI may show subtle changes in lung tissue that warrant further investigation. Finding adenocarcinoma in situ at this earliest stage may offer the best possible treatment outcomes with minimal intervention. CT is the preferred tool for early lung cancer detection, however MRI contributes to staging assessment.
