Brief Answer:
Considerations

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for sending the question.

I see you have submitted a question regarding a CT scan evaluation.

From the history that you have provided, I am assuming that you had at least two CT scans done in the past.

Interval resolution is a phrase used in the setting of imaging evaluation. Specifically, in your case, the radiologist is commenting on a small nodular density which was initially noted on the CT scan initially performed six months previously.

The concept of "interval resolution" literally refers to the fact that the radiologist does not see any evidence of this density noted on the most recent scan. This would suggest that this density was possibly infectious, or inflammatory as opposed to something more worrisome like cancer.

Again since we have such a small amount of information related to your medical history, previous imaging, current and past health concerns this is a particular issue that I would strongly urge you to discuss in detail with your primary care physician. Your primary care physician can review the full and detailed imaging reports as provided by the radiologist regarding this particular imaging finding.

Thank you again for sending the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Sincerely,

Dr Galamaga
