A member asked:

What does this mean?? lobulated approximate 10 x 7 mm nodular density within the left lower lobe with a probable 2 mm satellite lesion. approximate

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lung nodule: The description is consistent with Lung nodules which can have a smooth rounded or lobulated appearance. Repeating a CT chest in 3 months would be wise. Anything larger than 6mm does raise suspicion for malignancy especially if it had a “spiculated” appearance
