What is ground glass on a lung CT scan?

Hello godfather2, do you mind sharing an update on your scan of your 8mm lung nodule? I find myself in similar wait and monitor situation with 4 nodules seen on a Sept 2024 scan. All four of mine are ground glass. Have you been told if yours is solid or non solid? It's hard to sit here and wait and see if anything becomes of these things. In my research I get anything from less than 1% chance of malignancy all the way up to 50% chance. That's a huge difference! Hoping you are doing well and in good health!

Ground glass means it is Not solid. So if they are All fully Ground Glass, it cannot be solid but translucent. (I have 7 of these in various sizes, we do 6-month CT scans to be sure no growth and also that they are remaining ground glass.
