Study findings from Cornell University, Department of Pathology provide new insights into lung cancer prognosis

Scientists discuss in 'Solitary and multiple resected adenocarcinomas after CT screening for lung cancer: histopathologic features and their prognostic implications' new findings in lung cancer. In this recent study, researchers in the United States conducted a study "To study the histopathologic features of CT screen-detected Stage IA adenocarcinomas to determine whether survival differed by the proportion of bronchioloalveolar component (BAC) or by the presence of multiple lesions in node-negative patients.
