A member asked:
Is a lung nodule which is 7cm in size not very big though described as benign by 1st ct scan with a 2nd ct in 6 mnths should i be concerned about 7cm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to check: the report again. 7 cm or 7mm or 0.7 cm? If lesion really 7 cm , it needs work up now. If 7mm ( same as 0.7cm ) then 6 month follow up scan ok.
