We had a patient that had a CT scan and a mass was found on the lung. The radiologist stated it was "compatible" with lung cancer. However, the pathology report came back negative. There was a pathology report for the liver and it came back positive as mets. My physician wants to code it as lung cancer but I am not sure we should do that. Does anyone have any suggestions?
