How does a radiologist ddx a calcified granuloma vs. a rectal adenocarcinoma lung metastasis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Experience: A calcified granuloma is...Calcified! most metastatic nodules are not. Exceptions include mets from osteosarcoma, and mucinous adenocarcinoma of the colon. Granulomas tend not to change over time. Mets tend to grow and are usually multiple.
