lüll Solitary pulmonary nodules: detection, characterization, and guidance for further diagnostic workup and treatment Jeong YJ; Yi CA; Lee KSAJR Am J Roentgenol 2007[Jan]; 188 (1): 57-68OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study is to improve radiologists' understanding of the clinical issues involved in making a diagnosis and to guide further diagnostic workup and treatment of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs). CONCLUSION: Information on the morphologic and hemodynamic characteristics of SPNs provided by dynamic helical CT, with high specificity and reasonably high accuracy, can be used for initial assessment. PET/CT is more sensitive at detecting malignancy than dynamic helical CT, and all malignant nodules may be potentially diagnosed as malignant by both techniques. Therefore, PET/CT may be selectively performed to characterize SPNs that show indeterminate results at dynamic helical CT.|Adult[MESH]|Diagnostic Imaging/*methods[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lung Neoplasms/*diagnosis/*therapy[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Practice Guidelines as Topic[MESH]|Practice Patterns, Physicians'[MESH]|Risk Assessment/*methods[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH]|Solitary Pulmonary Nodule/*diagnosis/*therapy[MESH] |
