A member asked:
In colon cancer person can a 0.5 cm lung nodule be a met? this was seen on a ct scan .
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Afraid so: Given the circumstances you described the lung nodule would be presumed to be a met unless proven otherwise. Does the person have liver mets? If yes, then the lung nodule is more likely to be met.
