Article Synopsis
  • - The study focused on analyzing the occurrence and timing of growth in subsolid nodules (SSNs) that had been stable for five years, investigating their clinical significance and determining an effective follow-up strategy.
  • - Out of 235 SSNs followed for up to 181 months after initial stability, only 14 (6.0%) showed growth, and no metastases were found, indicating a very low growth incidence.
  • - The proposed follow-up with CT scans every five years post-initial stability could effectively detect most of the growing nodules and any clinical stage shifts.

An anthropomorphic diagnosis system of pulmonary nodules using weak annotation-based deep learning.

The accurate categorization of lung nodules in CT scans is an essential aspect in the prompt detection and diagnosis of lung cancer. The categorization of grade and texture for nodules is particularly significant since it can aid radiologists and clinicians to make better-informed decisions concerning the management of nodules. However, currently existing nodule classification techniques have a singular function of nodule classification and rely on an extensive amount of high-quality annotation data, which does not meet the requirements of clinical practice.

Background: Follow-up management of pulmonary nodules is a crucial component of lung cancer screening. Consistency in follow-up recommendations is essential for effective lung cancer screening. This study aimed to assess inter-observer agreement on National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline-based follow-up recommendation for subsolid nodules from low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening.

Background: The management of subsolid nodules (SSNs) in lung cancer screening (LCS) is still a topic of debate, with no current uniform strategy to deal with these lesions at risk of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. The BioMILD LCS trial has implemented a prospective conservative approach for SSNs, managing with annual low-dose computed tomography nonsolid nodules (NSNs) and part-solid nodules (PSNs) with a solid component <5 mm, regardless of the size of the nonsolid component. The present study aims to determine the lung cancer (LC) detection and survival in BioMILD volunteers with SSNs.

Subsolid Nodules: Significance and Current Understanding.

Clin Chest Med

Department of Radiological Sciences, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Box 957437, 757 Westwood Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90095-7437, USA.

Subsolid nodules are heterogeneously appearing and behaving entities, commonly encountered incidentally and in high-risk populations. Accurate characterization of subsolid nodules, and application of evolving surveillance guidelines, facilitates evidence-based and multidisciplinary patient-centered management.
