TY - JOUR AU - Obiols, Carme AU - Call, Sergi AU - Rami-Porta, Ramon PY - 2019 TI - The importance of the false-negative rate to validate a staging protocol for non-small cell lung cancer JF - Translational Lung Cancer Research; Vol 8, Supplement 4 (December 31, 2019): Translational Lung Cancer Research Y2 - 2019 KW - N2 - First of all, we would like to congratulate Dr. Verdial et al . for their recently published article entitled “A prediction model for nodal disease among patients with non-small cell lung cancer” (1). Dr. Verdial and co-workers have analyzed their experience in mediastinal nodal staging for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), based on the recommendations of the current guidelines, in order to find out a better model to predict nodal disease and reduce the need of invasive staging procedures.
