Overview
There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with solitary pulmonary nodule.[1]
Laboratory Findings
- The use of biomarker may be useful in the risk stratification for solitary pulmonary nodule, biomarkers such as:
- Carcinoembryonic antigen
- Alpha-1 antitrypsin
- Squamous cell carcinoma antigen
- The measurement of biomarkers may be useful for benign diseases, markers such as:
- Angiotensin converting enzyme
- Connective tissue disease markers
