Radiographic evaluation of the patient with lung cancer: surgical implications of imaging. Current problems in diagnostic radiology Backhus, L., Puneet, B., Bastawrous, S., Mariam, M., Michael, M., Varghese, T. 2013; 42 (3): 84-98Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Despite many advances in treatment, surgery remains the preferred treatment modality for patients presenting with early stage disease. Imaging is critical in the preoperative evaluation of these patients being considered for a curative resection.

Knowledge of surgical implications of imaging findings can aid both radiologists and surgeons in delivering safe and effective care.
