Clinical associations and prognostic value of site-specific metastases in non-small cell lung cancer: A population-based study.

TL;DR: The present study is the first to investigate the occurrence rate and prognostic value of different metastatic patterns of site-specific DM for NSCLC using a large population-based dataset, and revealed that the most common site of single metastasis occurrence was bone, and the least common was the liver forNSCLC.

Influx rate constant of 18 F-FDG increases in metastatic lymph nodes of non-small cell lung cancer patients

TL;DR: The dynamic modeling for MLN (KiMLN) showed more sensitive than the static analysis (SUV) to detect metastatic lymph nodes in NSCLC, although both methods were sensitive for PT.

EBUS: Faster, cheaper and most effective in lung cancer staging.

TL;DR: The latest findings regarding the benefits of EBUS are outlined in this review, which is the first to emphasise the impact of the procedure, both on timing and costs of lung cancer staging, as well as on survival.

HIV-infected patients with opportunistic pulmonary infections misdiagnosed as lung cancers: the clinicoradiologic features and initial application of CT radiomics

TL;DR: Clinoradiologic features together with radiomics may help identify OPIs mimicking lung cancers in HIV-infected patients and there were significant differences in age, proportion of smokers, smoking index, highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) duration, CD4+ counts and CD4/CD8+ ratio between the two groups.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
