I guess it's more or less a resection and not a biopsy. There are 3 nodules which are all questionable.1 of which has increased in size. They can't get to it because of the other 2 so they're just gonna remove all 3 via resection.about 1/2 of my right lung will be removed.

Lenn, what kind of lung biopsy?
I have had several biopsy's but usually in the form of a bronchoscopy. Although another time was another kind of surgery through my trek.
I have heard of needle biopsy's but not lung? Can you explain more?
