| Re: nodules read by PET scans
millimeter nodules can be read by a CT scan.
I have mm nodules 4mm, 6mm & 8mm nodules that were picked up from a CT scan. PET scans will light up if it's cancerous, but NOT ALWAYS! PET SCANS can show false positives, and false negatives. A little confusing but ask for a CT scan first. Plus it's cheaper to do CT scans. I don't know if they will do a PET scan for nodules.
