Assessing probability of malignancy in solid solitary pulmonary nodules with a new Bayesian calculator: improving diagnostic accuracy by means of expanded and updated features.

Objectives: A crucial point in the work-up of a solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is to accurately characterise the lesion on the basis of imaging and clinical data available. We introduce a new Bayesian calculator as a tool to assess and grade SPN risk of malignancy.Methods: A set of 343 consecutive...
