Incidental lower lung module found

I think "subpleural" means inside the lung, but close to the pleura.

I usually get a report from a radiologist at the CT-center, but only
maybe after a 10min look at it.
The PCP won't look at it and the pulmologist usually has not much time
and is not specialized in CT-interpretation.

IMO , when it's complicated they should submit it to a national or international
center with a big database and experts for different subspecialities

yes exactly, I had my report in less than an hour after the scan. So I know there wasn’t much time taken on it. I see all these other reports and everyone’s states shapes and density or calcification and recommendations for follow up . PCP hasn’t look at anything other than the report, and there is t much there other than location and size. Is it possible for me to send my scan to another radiologist or teaching hospital for a better interpretation. I’m just kinda lost at the moment.
