Abstract:
Despite solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is a common medical problem in the clinic,the managements can be quite complex.The aetiological agent is largely unknown.Making a definitive diagnosis for SPNs before the operation has been a clinical challenge.A major problem for clinicians and radiologists were to identify the nature of benign and malignant SPNs at an early stage,and let the patients receive therapies timely and effectively.At present,many clinical features and detect methods of SPNs have been applied for differentiating the nodules,but these are not fully to distinguish it.Recently,some progressions had brought qualitative improvements to the diagnosis and treatment of SPNs.Therefore,in this paper,the research status and progresses of SPNs were reviewed.
