My dad has made lung x-ray and there is visible approximately 5cm big shape in one lung, doctor said that is possible tumor and send dad to later diaganostics, surgen also said that it looks like tumor.

later diaganosis will be next week.

But I have question, is it posiible that this shape is caused by something other, not cancer? and if it is cancer - in what stage it can be? (5 cm in diameter)?

Can`t this tumor be benign tumour? is it posiible and how ofen benign tumour is diaganosed in lungs?

Can anybody suggest good clinic or maybe trial for lung cancer patients?
