Apr 1st, 2021 - We aimed to develop a malignancy risk score model for solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) using the demographic, radiological and clinical characteristics of patients in our centre. The model was then internally validated for malignancy risk estimat...

Mar 5th, 2021 - Cryptococcus is one of the major fungal pathogens infecting the lungs. Pulmonary cryptococcal infection is generally considered a community-acquired condition caused by inhalation of dust contaminated with fungal cells from the environment. Here, ...

Feb 25th, 2021 - Nodule evaluation is challenging and critical to diagnose multiple pulmonary nodules (MPNs). We aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based model to estimate the malignant probability of MPNs to guide decision-making. A boosted ensemble...

Jan 25th, 2021 - This study aimed to evaluate the computed tomography (CT) features of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN), which can be a non-invasive diagnostic tool to differentiate between primary lung cancer (LC) and solitary lung metastasis (LM) in patients with...

When is a CT scan indicated to examine a solitary pulmonary nodule found on a chest x-ray film? Is there an indication for positron-emission tomography scanning? When should a biopsy be performed? What is the best biopsy method? In January 2003 th.

KEYSTONE, COLO. — Management of a solitary pulmonary nodule 1 cm or less in size in a patient at intermediate risk for lung cancer remains an enormous challenge and considerable burden on the health care system.

ABSTRACT A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) on a chest radiograph represents a major diagnostic dilemma. The goals of management are to resect malignant tumors without delay and to avoid unnecessary thoracotomy if the nodule is benign.
