Fig. 2C —58-year-old man with 9-mm solid nodule with irregular margins
on surveillance CT scan obtained 15 months after baseline CT (cancer # 2). For
CT examinations, t, t–1, and t–2, respectively, designate current,
most recent prior examination, and second most recent prior examination.
Numbers marked with C are automatically generated by computer-aided detection
(CAD) system and indicate presence of nodule candidate. Image from second
follow-up CT at time t (119 days) shows slight increase in lesion size.
Between B and C, CAD calculated volumetric growth, and doubling
time was 48.6% and 208 days, compatible with malignant lesion (biopsy-proven
adenocarcinoma).
