Overview

The distribution of demographic, clinical, radiological, pathological and molecular characteristics of lung cancer at the time of diagnosis, as well as preferential association between elements of those domains, have not been specifically studied in Italy. The aim of the present project is to assess, in a systematic fashion, the demographic, clinical, radiological, pathological and molecular characteristics of advanced lung cancer at the time of diagnosis in a large Italian cohort of consecutive patients referred to two tertiary referral centers.
