Hmm, I would say it means the doc is probably comfortable with the probable diagnosis based on imaging, or wants to talk to you about more testing before seeing you in person. What led to the referral?

My local Dr ordered a chest X-ray because I had a chronic cough,it showed a 6 mm opacity so then a ordered a Lung CT which said the 6mm wasn’t a concern any longer it’s just a shadow But the Lung CT did show a 9.5 mm ground glass nodule in the right lower lobe & was going me to a Pulmonologist but I called Mayo Clinic instead & had this local Dr to send my dr reports CT test results to Mayo after reading them they gave me a video appointment for this Tuesday , I’m wondering does that mean my case is not serious or what ?
