Lung cancer staging
In medicine, lung cancer staging is the assessment of the extent to which a lung cancer has spread from its original source. As with most cancers, staging is an important determinant of treatment and prognosis. In general, more advanced stages of cancer portend a poorer prognosis and are less amenable to treatment. There are several methods, or modalities, by which this assessment is made. They are broadly classified into non-invasive techniques, which generally involve medical imaging of the lungs such as computer tomography (CT) scans, and invasive techniques such as biopsy...
