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.

Causes of Pulmonary Nodules. Benign nodules are almost always healed over âwoundsâ on the lung left from tuberculosis or a fungal infection, although there are other, less common causes. Cancerous nodules can be the first stage of a primary lung cancer, brought on by smoking or any other common cause of lung cancer. They also can be a secondary cancer that metastasized in the lungs from a primary cancer elsewhere in the body.
