Incidental findings on CT scans offer a powerful opportunity. While concerns about radiation exposure from repeated CT scans are valid and necessitate careful usage, we can extract more information from existing scans. Radiomic analysis of lung nodules, found on nearly all CT scans, can provide valuable insights into nodule risk, going significantly beyond traditional size and shape assessments like LungRADs. This can be done without requiring additional scans before the scheduled follow-up, allowing us to leverage current imaging data more effectively.


Harness the power of incidental findings. Don't let valuable information hidden within existing CT scans go to waste. While mindful of radiation exposure, radiomic analysis can unlock deeper insights into lung nodule risk, far exceeding the limitations of size and shape. Leverage the data you already have – no need for immediate repeat scans.
