My Godchild had a rare form of liver cancer when she was 12...she recieved chemo and radiation and had half of her liver removed. It has been 3 years and she went for a 6 month scan and they found 3 lung nodules each 3mm big. What are the chances that they are cancerous? They said they are just going to wait to see if they grow at her next six month scan.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion we should get done repeat PET scan after 6 months. If nodules are same or decreasing than no need to worry about malignancy. But if nodules are either increase in size or in the number than we should rule out malignancy by biopsy of nodule. So better to wait at present and get done repeat scan after 3 months.
