A lung nodule or pulmonary nodule is a relatively small focal density in the lung. A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) or coin lesion, [1] is a mass in the lung smaller than three centimeters in diameter. A pulmonary micronodule has a diameter of less than three millimetres. [2] There may also be multiple nodules.
Well-demarcated, nodular lesions ranging 2–5 mm in pulmonary parenchyma. Type II pneumocytes without nuclear atypia lined thickened alveolar septa and proliferated papillary structures. Enlarged cuboidal cells lining mildly thickened alveolar septa. [11] Enlarged cuboidal cells have abundant, eosinophilic cytoplasm and large, round nuclei. [12]
In medicine, nodules are small firm lumps, usually greater than 1 cm in diameter. [1] [2] If filled with fluid they are referred to as cysts. [2]Smaller (less than 0.5 cm) raised soft tissue bumps may be termed papules.
Miliary tuberculosis is a form of tuberculosis that is characterized by a wide dissemination into the human body and by the tiny size of the lesions (1–5 mm). Its name comes from a distinctive pattern seen on a chest radiograph of many tiny spots distributed throughout the lung fields with the appearance similar to millet seeds—thus the term "miliary" tuberculosis.
A focal lung pneumatosis is an enclosed pocket of air or gas in the lung and includes blebs, bullae, pulmonary cysts, and lung cavities. Blebs and bullae can be classified by their wall thickness. [1] A bleb has a wall thickness of less than 1 mm. [2] By radiology definition, it is up to 1 cm in total size. [3]
