Diagnostic success of transthoracic needle biopsy and PET‐CT for 1 to 2 cm solid indeterminate pulmonary nodules

Among the nodule types, the most controversial group are indeterminate solid nodules from 1 to 2 cm in size with the first choice being transthoracic needle biopsy (TTNB) or positron emission tomography (PET‐CT) or both methods together. However, no single diagnostic algorithm could be applied to all cases. This research discusses the diagnostic success of PET‐CT and TTNB.
