    Abstract:
    The advancements in CT imaging have allowed for faster and higher resolution imaging of the thorax. Unfortunately, this had led to an increase in purposely and incidentally detected nodules of which the etiology is uncertain. The management of these nodules is based on multiple factors, but primarily based on risk factors of the patient. Broad categories of risk include nodules detected in patients incidentally, in patients being evaluated for thoracic disease, in people undergoing lung cancer screening and in patients being evaluated and treated for a malignancy. Current recommendations for management of these patients will be reviewed.
