A member asked:
Hi dr, last year i had a kidney stone, and when they did a ct scan for the kidney stone they found a nodule on my lung, and now its gone, possible?

It is possible: One needs to know the characteristics of the nodule that was seen last year. Also, was a CT scan repeated now in order to follow up on the lung nodule? It would be best to see both studies side by side. A full clinical history would also be helpful. I suggest if you are concerned you schedule a consult with a physician. Best wishes.

Due to kidney stones and a lung nodule, I had 4 ct scans over a 10 month period (2 chest, 2 ab/pelvic). Seems I've weathered that storm but should I be concerned about the amount of radiation (around 42 msv) I received in such a short period?
