This case-based session will review the signs that allow nodules to be classified as benign: the presence of fat, criteria for intrapulmonary lymph nodes, and slow doubling time. It will also highlight pitfalls such as pseudotumoural forms of lipid pneumonia. For subsolid nodules, morphological signs suggesting an invasive nature will be presented.
