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.

What are lung nodules and where do they come from?
Lung nodules do not have to be serious, but this depends on a number of factors. If you're under 40, a non smoker, and the nodule on X-Ray is found to have calcium in it, then it is unlikely due to be from cancer. If this is not the case, then it may be caused by cancer.
What is omental nodules?

These nodules can sometimes be found incidentally during imaging studies or surgery for other conditions and may be benign or associated with underlying diseases such as cancer.
What are five minerals that may be found in nodules?
Five minerals that may be found in nodules are manganese, iron, cobalt, copper, and nickel. These minerals are commonly found in nodules formed on the ocean floor.
Why are nodules hard to mine?
Nodules are hard to mine because they are found in very deep water
Where are Nodules found?
they are found growing the roots of plants e.g. cress
What is found in the root nodules of leguminous plants?
it is rhizobium
Where on liguminous plants are nitrogen fixing bacteria found?
In nodules on the roots.
What minerals can be found in Nodules?
oxides of manganese, nickel, copper and iron
Where are nitrogen found?
The nitrogen bacteria called RHIZOBIUM is found in the root nodules of leguminous plants.They are symbiotic.
Can breast cancer be found early?
Yes. The earlier breast cancer is detected, the better the long term prognosis is.
Where can nitrogen-fixing bacteria be found?
In root nodules of lupins and other legumes.
Potato-shaped lump of minerals found in deep water?
Nodules of manganese are commonly found on the ocean floor.
