Abstract
With the widespread use of high-resolution multislice spiral computed tomography and the popularization of regular physical examinations, the prevalence of clinically diagnosed subcentimeter pulmonary nodules is increasing. Subcentimeter pulmonary nodules have low malignant probability, however, the diagnosis and management are of high difficulty and it is likely to misdiagnose and miss malignant nodules. Therefore, the evaluation and management of subcentimeter pulmonary nodules have always been the key points of clinical work. This article reviews and summarizes the progress in the evaluation and management of subcentimeter pulmonary nodules.Entities:
