Lung Cancer - Other
This study used lung cancer screening trial low dose CT scans to develop a model (Sybil) that predicts the likelihood of development of a lung cancer within the next year. The model was then tested...
This retrospective validation study compared conventional hard boundary objective performance indicators (OPIs) with probabilistic expected OPIs that model uncertainty in surgical step timing. Using 1,016 da Vinci Xi robotic cases...
In this episode of The Atrium, host Alice Copperwheat speaks with Jessica Donington, Professor of Surgery and Chief of the Section of Thoracic Surgery at the University of Chicago, Illinois,...
Lung cancer screening with low-dose CT is being introduced in several European countries. The management of incidental findings, both pulmonary and extrapulmonary, is an important component of the clinical and...
A manuscript that wil certainly be discussed in lung MDT! The thought of a RCT in these earlier stages may be already in the mind of the sponsors… The authors...
This is an excellent summary of progress during the past year in all aspects of lung cancer, from prevention/detection through molecular therapies and future perspectives. Each section is written by...
Routine use of PET scans to follow up asymptomatic patients do not affect survival, according to this retrospective analysis of a cohort of 97,152 lung cancer and 4,446 esophageal cancer...
This single institution retrospective study evaluated the relationship of adenocarcinoma subtype to long-term survival after resection of stage I lung cancer. Patients with solid-predominant tumors experienced recurrences earlier, more often...
Filmed at the 2015 STS Annual Meeting in San Diego, California, this roundtable discussion focuses on the use of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the treatment of lung cancer....
The ELCAP data set was evaluated for pts identified with non-solid nodules at baseline or during follow-up. 2392 (4.2%) pts had nonsolid nodules at baseline, of which 73 were diagnosed...
In this retrospective review of 336 patients treated surgically for early stage NSCLC, the prognostic value of PET SUV was evaluated. Risks of recurrence and death increased steadily as SUV...
Pts with suspected lung cancer underwent sampling of normal-appearingbronchial epithelial cells in the main bronchi, unrelated to the suspected tumor. Gene expression was analyzed and classified. Classification for cancer was...
The authors reviewed patients with small resected stage I lung adenocarcinoma to determine the frequency of tumor cells spreading through airway spaces (STAS) and their relationship to recurrent cancer. Nearly...
