Access to Care Limits Lung Cancer Screening Eligibility in an Urban Safety Net Hospital

TL;DR: Absence of established PCPs is associated with later stage presentation of lung cancer and may limit system- level benefits of LCS implementation, and patients without PCPs were more likely to have diagnostic evaluation initiated from Emergency Department or Urgent Care settings.

Pre-surgical assessment of mediastinal lymph node metastases in Stage IA non-small-cell lung cancers.

TL;DR: Clinical Stage IA for non-small-cell-lung-cancers with nonsolid, part-solid, or solid consistency should be based on pre-surgical CT maximum tumor diameter and lymph node short-axis measurements on CT ≤20 mm.

Application of Dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT for Distinguishing Intrapulmonary Metastases from Synchronous Multiple Primary Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT could be a useful tool for distinguishing sMPLC from IPM and Ki calculation based on Patlak graphic analysis could be more sensitive than SUVmax in discriminating IPM from sMP LC in patients with multiple lung cancer nodules.

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.
