    Journal Article

    Highlights • Exponential growth is assumed for lung cancer but has never been quantified in-vivo. • Growth patterns of 47 screen-detected solid lung cancers were quantified. • Lung cancer growth could be described by an exponential function with excellent fit. • Therefore, volume-doubling time can be used to describe growth of pulmonary nodules.
