METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING DISSEMINATION OF LUNG CANCER

摘要

The method for diagnosing the dissemination of lung cancer provides for the surgery and the histological examination of the lymph nodes in the resected mediastinal fat. The resected lymph nodes are examined immunohystochemically. In addition, the sternal puncture is performed for sampling the bone marrow for the detection of metastatic cells using the cytological and cytochemical examination with the aid of monoclonals to cytokeratins.
