Multiple non calcified lung nodules?
446075
If the non-calcified nodules seen on screening were confirmed and were non-calcified on the diagnostic CT, further work-up was recommended, depending on the size (average of length and width) of the nodule:\nnodules 5 mm or less: follow up with high resolution CT scans at 3 mos, 6 mos, 12 mos and 24 mos as long as there was no growth. \n\nhttp://www.journalclub.org/vol2/a71.html\n\nIf a nodule is found on a screening CT scan, than a decision is made to either biopsy the nodule if it appears suspicious for cancer, or to repeat a CT scan within 6 to 12 weeks to determine if the nodule has grown. Should the nodule grow, this is highly suspicious for malignancy, and a recommendation to biopsy the nodule is warranted. If on the other hand the nodule remains stable in size, and does not change, then continued observation is recommended. \n\nhttp://www.columbiasurgery.org/divisions/cardiothoracic/dd_cancer_screen.html

It means that there is a spot in the lungs. That report by itself does NOT tell the cause of the spot. Often not cancerous and can be due to infection or scar tissue. Further testing usually needed to determine if cancer or not.

They might be hurting because you haven't been using them enough. Talk to your doctor about the lumps--that could be something serious!

Lumps that aren't painful, dimpling, amd discoloration. Get checked if you have a doubt in any of these areas.

My wife had these early in life. The doctor said they were estrogen spots but he was a country doctor and could have been off his rocker. They went away after a few years.

if you are having new nodules appear, consider seeing a pulmonologist or thoracic surgeon for another opinion. Infection can do this, but so can cancer

Hello,\nI don't know anything about this disease sorry.\nI would suggest you get another opinion from another doctor. Have more test run. Blood work, nuc meds, MRI on her lungs if this is where this is found.  etc., etc.\nThis can be caused by a number of things. The important thing for you and your daughter is to make sure this is what she has....Never trust one doctor in serious medical problems. \nYou did not say exactly what or where this disease was found I am assuming the lungs?\nPS: If your doctor did not suggest other test to confirm this he should have.

I think the first diagnosis is not related to thyroid problem.\nTapeworm can result in changes in neck lymph node (cervical node).\nThyroid nodule can be benign hyperplasia, adenoma or carcinoma (cancer).  \nBlood tests can be helpful in the work up along with history and physical exam.\nThyroid scan (like X-ray study) and/or ultrasound may be necessary.  A quick and relatively non-invasive fine needle aspiration of the thyroid nodule can also be helpful to determine whether the nodule is cancer or not.\nEndocrinologist normally is experienced in dealing with thyroid nodule.\nGood luck.

I have non small cell lung cancer - had surgery in Nov 05, just heard about cottage cheese and flaxseed oil and sent away for it.  As soon as it arrives I will be starting the regime.  I do not know anyone at this time with small cell lung cancer.

A blue line  rather than a blue hue is  unlikely to be pulmonary insufficiency. Also schleroderma and Renaud's phenomena are not usually so restricted. See a dermatologist and set your mind to rest.

Since he had some fluid in the healthy lung, it may mean that this only lung is affected by cancer too.\nthere may be 1or 2 other possibility but to be honest cancer is # 1 reason.\nhole in his lung ? may mean pneumothorax which usually resolves by itself but needs some time (may be weeks, my brother had a hole in his lung after heart surgery & it healed after 1 month).\ni wish your uncle good health

Ground glass opacities can indicate many things including infection, pulmonary edema, hemmorhage, many of the interstitial lung diseases, and alveolar proteinosis.

Calcification of parts.It occurs generally along with calcification of pancreas.Localised single white spot rarely occurs as a sequel to small healed liver abscess.Well healed and cured miliary tuberculosis is another rare reason.Dont jump to hasty conclusions.We were taught that a rare diagnosis is RARELY CORRECT.
