Expert Assessment of Pulmonary Nodules

A lung nodule is a small, round spot seen on a chest X-ray or CT scan. While most lung nodules are benign and caused by previous infections or inflammation, some may represent early lung cancer and require further evaluation. Careful assessment helps determine whether a nodule can be safely monitored or needs additional testing.

When Should a Lung Nodule Be Evaluated?

Diagnosis & Management

Evaluation may include high-resolution CT (HRCT), PET-CT scan, bronchoscopy, EBUS, CT-guided biopsy, or regular CT surveillance, depending on the size, appearance, and risk factors. Each patient receives an individualized management plan based on current clinical guidelines.
