For 6mm ground glass nodules, it takes 2~3 years to review the specific nodule, mainly to observe the changes of the specific nodule, and to treat the lesion as early as possible after discovery.
A large portion of the 6 mm ground-glass nodules are benign lesions, especially those less than or equal to 5 mm, such as residual inflammation or lymph nodes in the lungs, etc., which need to be reviewed once every half a year after discovery, and if there is no change, then the review will be conducted for 2~3 years in consecutive years; if the ground-glass nodules are between 5~6 mm, then they will be reviewed once every 3 months after discovery, and if there is no change, then they will be reviewed for 2~3 years in consecutive years as well. If there is no change, the examination should be repeated for 2 to 3 years.
In most cases, it is necessary to combine the clinical symptoms and clinical history to make a comprehensive judgment, and if the nodule continues to increase in size or solid change, it is necessary to seek medical treatment.
