Synchronous multiple ground-glass nodules (SMGGNs) in synchronous multiple lung cancers are associated with specific imaging findings. It is difficult to distinguish whether multiple nodules are primary tumors or metastatic lesions in the lungs. The need for PET/CT and contrast-enhanced brain MRI fo...
