每年有超过15万的患者向他们的医生提出在胸片或胸部CT上发现孤立性肺结节（SPN）的诊断困境。如果要早期发现肺癌并优化治愈机会，对这一发现进行周到和及时的检查是必不可少的。根据迄今为止的文献，我们提出了适当的成像方式和诊断测试的建议，以及术前对SPN患者进行组织诊断的指征。
More than 150,00 patients a year present to their physicians with the diagnostic dilemma of a solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) found either on chest radiography or chest CT. A thoughtful and timely workup of this finding is essential if lung cancer is to be recognized early and the chance for cure optimized. Based on the literature to date, recommendations are made for appropriate imaging modalities and diagnostic testing, as well as indications for obtaining preoperative tissue diagnosis for the patient with an SPN.
