Gene Expression Test Boosts Sensitivity of Bronchoscopy in Lung Cancer Diagnosis

Summary

The addition of gene expression analysis of 17 cancer genes increases sensitivity of bronchoscopy for the diagnosis of lung cancer, regardless of lesion size, location, and histology. This article presents data from the Airway Epithelium Gene Expression in the Diagnosis of Lung Cancer trial [AEGIS; NCT01309087; Whitney D et al. Am J Respir Care Med 2014].
