Best Answer

X-rays pass through soft tissue and are blocked by hard tissue, which means that the lump is harder than the rest of your lung. Cancer tissue is not necessarily harder than other tissue, so don't jump to that conclusion. What can be harder in the lung tissue is tubercles, which are small growths caused by tuberculosis. Of course, you should follow whatever your doctor says about this, not something off WikiAnswers.
