The diagnosis and management of multiple ground-glass nodules in the lung
摘要
The prevalence of low-dose CT (LDCT) in lung cancer screening has gradually increased, and more and more lung ground glass nodules (GGNs) have been detected. So far, a consensus has been reached on the treatment of single pulmonary ground glass nodules, and there have been many guidelines that can be widely accepted. However, at present, more than half of the patients have more than one nodule when pulmonary ground glass nodules are found, which means that different treatment methods for nodules may have different effects on the prognosis or quality of life of patients. This article reviews the research progress in the diagnosis and treatment strategies of pulmonary multiple lesions manifested as GGNs.
