Abstract:
Initial studies suggested a low prevalence of nodal metastases in T1 lung cancer.However,several recent studies have reported a relatively high prevalence of mediastinal lymph node metastases.The extrathoracic metastases in T1 lung cancer differs widely(0%-24%).In this article,we discuss the thinsection CT and FDG-PET findings in T1 non-small cell lung cancer and also discuss the correlation of CT findings with prognosis and survival,the correlation between tumor size and survival,and extrathoracic metastasis of T1 lung cancer.
