    .what's consolidated mean??

    • @edusurgclinics
      @edusurgclinics  Год назад +1

      Consolidation refers to an area of homogeneous increase in lung parenchymal attenuation that obscures the margins of vessels and airway walls.

      @edusurgclinics Is this a 8mm nodule or what? I have to go back for another scan she said. It's apparently on the peripheral posterior lower lobe.

      For any nodule, consolidation means the same. As already mentioned, the management is on case to case basis. It's not a black and white thing, the scan reading so leave it to the doctors treating you and assessing your scans. Kindly Follow the treating doctor's advice.

    Is 3.9cm nodule with spiculated margins are treatable?

    • @edusurgclinics
      @edusurgclinics  2 года назад

      Can be, depends on a lot of factors, but yes, 3.9 cm by itself does not become untreatable.

    When do they biopsy the nodule?

    • @edusurgclinics
      @edusurgclinics  Год назад +1

      That depends on case to case basis. Each patient is different and should be treated accordingly.
      We always say, don't treat the scan, treat the patient. Hope that helps. Warm regards.

    Is spiculated lung nodule alwys cancer? studies report that they have a 90-100% prediction of being cancer, is the probability really that high?

    • @edusurgclinics
      @edusurgclinics  Год назад

      It's very probable of cancer but not always. As explained in video, a lot of factors are used to analyze each case in correlation with clinical findings.
