The Early Lung Cancer Action Project reported that the malignancy rate of GGNs (34%) was higher than that of solid nodules (7%) and that the malignancy rates of mixed GGNs (part-solid nodules) and pure GGNs (nonsolid nodules) were 64% and 18%, respectively.
The article doesn't say if they are found in the early stages of cancer but that finding them means that the there is a greater chance that there is cancer in the lung compared to other lesions.
