Figure 1a. Interval growth of a nodule (arrow) in the right middle lobe in a 24-year-old woman with a previously resected osteosarcoma. (a) Transverse helical CT image of the right middle lobe demonstrates a 2-mm nodule. (b) Transverse helical CT image obtained 5 months later through the same level demonstrates interval growth of the nodule to 8 mm.
