Lung Nodule Clinic
We offer evaluation and intervention for lung nodules at the Cardiovascular & Thoracic Surgery Clinic. A lung nodule is a small irregularity within lung tissue that can be round or oval-shaped and malignant or benign.
Lung nodules are often discovered through scans ordered for other conditions or because of risk factors for lung cancer, including:
- Smoking or vaping
- Exposure to radon or asbestos
- Previous radiation therapy
- Family history of cancer
Nodules measuring 6mm or greater require further testing and/or CT scans. The lung nodule clinic will facilitate the evaluation, follow up and biopsies of irregularities as clinically indicated.
