Thank you so much for the information. I truly appreciate it. I had CT for my heart..I had high cholesterol.
You stated a statistic of 95%, but that is not for nodules over 10mm. Unfortunately its much lower percentage. Everything I have read and as you stated, it should be biopsied or have a PET scan but for some reason my physicians want to wait. Even with my family history. 🤔 So if the national standard is to have the tests why are they so hesitant??

Hello aahlrichs, I know its been a couple of years since your post on this thread but wondered how your situation is going with the lung nodule? I am a newbie here to the long nodule surveillance watching 4 ground glass nodules discovered in sept 2024. I also lost a parent to Lung cancer so although all the literature I can find states that lung nodules are relatively common and most are benign, it makes this a little more worrisome to me. Wishing you good health!
