New scan study aims to better predict lung cancer spread before surgery
NCT ID NCT05970913
Summary
This study is testing whether two types of PET-CT scans can accurately predict if non-small cell lung cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes before a patient has surgery. Researchers at Fudan University are enrolling 280 patients with early-stage lung cancer to compare the scan predictions against the actual results from surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning by giving doctors a clearer picture of cancer spread before an operation.
