Optimizing NSCLC Tumor Size Analysis

The CT system consisted of a full-ring time-of-flight 64-slice positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scanner (Discovery PET/CT 690 VCT; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA). The CT diagnosis system was used to analyze NSCLC tumor size using the preprogrammed setting. The preprogrammed setting was optimized, as described previously (17 (link)) to achieve the best image formation. The lungs in all patients underwent contrast-enhanced CT according to the manufacturer's protocols (Discovery PET/CT 690 VCT). The Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage (seventh edition) (18 (link)) was assigned based on intraboard consensus decision.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
