Lung Cancer Location: a Repository

October 7, 2013 updated by: Indiana University

Lung Cancer Location: A Prospective Repository

The purpose of this repository is to prospectively examine subjects with known or suspected lung cancer to determine the extent of mediastinal lymph node involvement with respect to primary lung cancer location. The data collected in this repository may be used to influence our current standard of care and streamline indications for EUS.
