Wise words from a doctor--don't comment about a specific person based on very very limited info. Of course--we pray for the pope and his entire medical team!!
There is a kind of break in the chain, a missing. I think if no other symptoms presented, an x-ray showing a nodule would lead to a PET scan, and likely biopsy before resection is assayed. So we’re not hearing brother symptoms or biopsies. There’s no reason to resection benign nodules.
As someone with a node in my lung that we've watched do nothing for years (noticed when my gallbladder died), I appreciate the careful analysis. I wonder whether there are different preferred responses in different medical systems.
