Pulmonary nodules are small, focal, radiographic opacities that may be solitary or multiple. A classic solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is a single, spherical, well-circumscribed, radiographic opacity measuring less than or equal to 30 mm in diameter and is surrounded completely by aerated lung.The SPN is a coined term that in the past described solitary nodules detected incidentally by chest radiography (CXR). classic solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is a single, spherical, well-circumscribed, radiographic opacity measuring less than or equal to 30 mm in diameter and is surrounded completely by aerated lung.

lung mass lesions require referral for further investigation. Multiple pulmonary nodules are described in terms of size, number, distribution, density, definition, cavitation, speed of growth (if serial films are available), and accompanying pleural, mediastinal, or skeletal abnormalities. Check for infection, systemic illness, and prior malignancy. All patients with multiple pulmonary nodules must be referred. Causes of pulmonary nodules are listed in Table II.
