Abstract:
In the USA, there were about 1 806 590 new cancer cases in 2020, and 606 520 cancer deaths are expected to have occurred in 2021. Lung cancer has become the leading cause of death from cancer in both men and women (Siegel et al., 2020). Clinical studies show that the five-year survival rate of lung cancer patients after early diagnosis and treatment intervention can reach 80%, compared with that of patients having advanced lung cancer. Thus, the early diagnosis of lung cancer is a key factor to reduce mortality.
