I have had a recent CT scan that shows I have 2 lung nodules , one 13mm and one 26 x 13mm with ground glass opacity. I recently had a severe chest infection and pneumomia. I have been advised to have a follow up CT scan in 3 months. Is this wise or should I follow up sooner?
Thanks for asking your question I completely understand your issue actually physician has requested for a followup ct to see the nodules, if they grow in size in next three months or they are stable or regressing. Followup ct scan to evaluate for lung nodules is a low dose ct after 3 months .if your problem increases and symptoms doesn't regress then u need to visit a pulmonologist and evaluate for the cause he may or may not order for a review ct scan.don't panic thanks / regards feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
