Risk assessment of indeterminate lung nodule characterization by a novel plasma-protein multiplexed assay in current smokers: Results of a clinical experience program
Abstract:Background: To reduce overdiagnosis and overtreatment of non-cancerous pulmonary nodules found on chest imaging, an accurate non-invasive and easily administered test is needed to assist in the detection and diagnosis of cancers in a cost-effective manner at an early stage, when curative interventions are still possible.Objective: To assess the results of a novel, plasma-based multiplexed protein assay in a clinical experience program.Methods: Fifty-four consecutive plasma samples were evaluated in a CLIA-cert… Show more
