6 mm pulmonary nodules are non specific. I would like to know if you had a previous CT that would establish if they’ve been there for some time. They are too small to be imaged with an MRI. A repeat study in 6 months is an excellent and appropriate follow up. The fact that you have a smoking history makes it that much more important for follow up. If these nodules don’t increase in size it’s goo
