2 Fig 1 (A) Axial computed tomography (CT) scan of a 61-year-old patient showing a 7-mm nonsolid lung nodule (red arrows) in the right superior pulmonary lobe discovered during lung cancer screening program. (B) Axial CT scan of the same patient showing injection of contrast medium and radiotracer into the nodule (red arrows). (C) Axial CT scan of the same patient after injection of contrast medium and radiotracer into the nodule (red arrows). (D) Chest scintigraphy (anterior view) showing a hot spot (site of injection) and body contour from a flexible wire 57Co source.
