The chances of a 4mm ground glass nodule being benign are usually more than 70%.
When patients have 4mm ground glass nodules, they may be associated with a variety of causes such as inflammatory irritation, tissue bleeding, or cancer. Typically, the chances of a 4mm ground glass nodule being benign are high and may be above 70%.
However, if the patient allows the disease to develop, and at the same time is exposed to radiation for a long time or has bad lifestyle habits, it is likely to aggravate the impact on the ground glass nodule, in which case there is a certain possibility of malignant changes in the ground glass nodule.
Patients with 4mm vitreous oxide nodules should go to the hospital in time and choose the appropriate method of treatment to minimize the possibility of malignant changes.
