Expert Second Opinions in Thoracic Oncology
Integrated pathology and radiology review for complex thoracic cancer cases.
Physician-led expertise for the cases that matter most.
Nebula Virtual Thoracic Oncology (NVTO) is a physician-led consultative service providing subspecialty second opinions through integrated review of pathology, imaging, and clinical data.
We bridge the gap between complex diagnostic uncertainty and confident clinical decision-making — combining subspecialty pathology with expert radiology correlation to deliver actionable, structured expert reports.

Four pillars of subspecialty thoracic review
Every NVTO consultation draws on all four components, delivered in a single integrated workflow.
Subspecialty Pathology Review
Expert re-review of biopsy and surgical pathology specimens by subspecialty thoracic pathologists, including immunohistochemistry interpretation and molecular marker analysis.
Radiology Correlation
Dedicated thoracic radiology review of CT, PET-CT, and MRI studies, with correlation of imaging phenotype to pathologic findings for integrated interpretation.
Integrated Interpretation
Simultaneous cross-disciplinary analysis where pathology and radiology findings are synthesized into a unified diagnostic impression — something rarely achieved in standard practice.
Structured Expert Report
A comprehensive, structured written report delivered directly to the referring physician, summarizing findings, diagnostic conclusions, and clinical recommendations.

The standard of care your complex cases deserve
Subspecialty Thoracic Expertise
Our team consists of fellowship-trained thoracic pathologists and dedicated thoracic radiologists — not general subspecialists, but true thoracic oncology experts.
Integrated Pathology + Radiology
Simultaneous cross-disciplinary review is our core differentiator. Pathology and radiology are reviewed together, not in isolation — resulting in a more complete diagnostic picture.
Designed for Complex Cases
NVTO is purpose-built for the diagnostically challenging cases that standard workflows struggle with — second opinions for cases where the stakes are highest.
Efficient Workflow
Streamlined digital submission, rapid digitization through partner labs, and a structured report format ensure fast turnaround without sacrificing depth.
