Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
The role of CT in diagnosis and management of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is evaluated and the literature reviewed. 33 cases of SPN were studied. CT value of all malignant nodules was less than 150 HU except in one case. 8 out of 12 benign nodules had CT value more than 150 HU. Significance and limitation of evaluation of density values in pulmonary nodules are discussed.
