What is the Probability that an 8mm Ground-Glass Opacity Nodule is Benign?

1. The probability of an 8mm GGO nodule being benign is generally low. It is recommended to visit the hospital as soon as possible for examination and treatment based on the severity of the condition.

2. An 8mm GGO nodule may be benign, but it cannot be ruled out as malignant. However, the probability of an 8mm GGO nodule being benign is generally not high. It is recommended to undergo chest CT scans, enhanced chest CT scans, and pathological examinations as soon as possible to understand the severity of the condition and receive targeted treatment. If it is a benign GGO nodule with a slow growth rate and no obvious pleural traction or lobulation, no special treatment is generally required, and a follow-up examination every 3 to 6 months is recommended. If it is a malignant GGO nodule with surrounding spiculations, infiltration, and adhesion, surgical resection, such as wedge resection or pneumonectomy, should be performed as soon as possible as advised by the doctor.

3. During treatment, it is important to avoid consuming irritant foods such as garlic or peppers. The diet should be light, with plenty of water intake, and one should avoid stress or anxiety. It is advisable to exercise outdoors to enhance one's resistance.
