I Just Had A PET Scan And It Showed "something"

I just had a PET scan and it showed "something" on my lower left lung so why would the doctor want to do a biopsy? Why not just remove whatever it is. I had lung cancer in right upper lobe 11 years ago and doctor removed the lobe. He did say if he removed the whole lobe I would hardly be able to breathe.
