Lung nodules are small spots or growths found in the lung, often discovered during imaging tests. While most lung nodules are non-cancerous (benign), a small percentage can be early stages of lung cancer. It's vital to monitor and manage them to ensure the health and safety of patients affected.

 

At Queensland Lung Clinic, our specialised approach to lung nodule management involves:

​

1.  Detection: Using advanced imaging techniques, we identify and diagnose lung nodules.

2. Monitoring: Regular check-ups allow us to track any changes in size or appearance, crucial for determining the nature of the nodule.

3. Treatment: If necessary, our experts recommend appropriate interventions, from minimally invasive procedures to more comprehensive treatments.

Did you know? Approximately 20% of Australians diagnosed with lung cancer are never smokers, underscoring the importance of regular lung health checks regardless of your smoking history. Early detection can increase the 5-year survival rate for lung cancer by up to 68%.
