Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of small cell lung cancer. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of small cell lung cancer include a hilar mass, lobular mass-like opacity, nodule in the lung, mediastinal lymphadenopathy, thickening of the paratracheal stripe and a mediastinal mass.

- A nodule in the lung
- A convex opacity representing mediastinal lymphadenopathy
- Thickening of the paratracheal stripe
- Mediastinal lymphadenopathy
- Mediastinal mass
