Novel Classifier Test Helps Reduce Invasive Procedures in Lung Cancer Diagnosis

In a large prospective multicenter set of two clinical validation studies, a new bronchial genomic test was found effective in helping to prevent unnecessary invasive, often risky and expensive procedures during diagnosis of suspected lung cancer cases.  More...
