In ur opinion, when should someone be worried about a pleural-based nodular? i have one that is 1cm and not happy with it, its claimed to be nothing

?Lung nodule: Lung nodules are very common, and can be very stress causing, as certainly you want to be sure it is not a cancerous lesion. In 2005, the Fleishner Society published recomendations for the mangament of certain nodules under a certain size. The attached link has the criteria that should be followed to monitor the area. Best wishes. http://www.med.umich.edu/rad/res/Fleischner-nodule.htm
