    At present, the only way for lung cancer to be able to ** is surgery, if it can be operated in the early stage, surgery is the first choice**, according to different stages, some need postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy, if it cannot be operated, it has to be radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Of course, it also depends on the pathology of lung cancer, if it is non-small cell lung cancer, then according to the above **, if it is small cell lung cancer, most of them are mainly chemotherapy, only very early surgery can be performed, and chemotherapy is also required after surgery, simple bronchoalveolar cell carcinoma is mainly surgery, which is not sensitive to chemotherapy and sensitive to targeting. In fact, what you should do at present is to make your father diagnose as soon as possible, especially to obtain the pathological nature (whether you can do flexible bronchoscopy, this examination can confirm the pathology), and complete the relevant examinations (CT, blood tumor markers, B ultrasound, etc.) so that the doctor can have a rough staging of the condition at the same time as the diagnosis is clear, so as to determine the best plan.

    It is difficult to say whether it is early stage lung cancer, and most lung cancers are found to be in the middle and advanced stages.

    Lung cancer is a very serious lung disease, once the disease is easy to develop into advanced lung cancer, so once we have lung discomfort in our daily life, we must go to a regular hospital for examination in time, in order to strive for early detection and early development. So how to check and diagnose lung cancer in the early stage, let's take a detailed look at it below. Experts say that lung cancer is very harmful, and early detection is the key.

    The early detection of lung cancer is the most important factor in determining the prognosis, most of the patients with advanced lung cancer die within 1 year, and the 5-year survival rate of early lung cancer can reach 60% to 90% after surgery**and comprehensive**, so the diagnosis of early lung cancer is the key to lung cancer. When patients come to the hospital with symptoms of cough, chest pain and hemoptysis, they are diagnosed as at an advanced stage, and domestic and foreign data show that once the lung cancer patients are diagnosed by pathology, 80% of them are already at an advanced stage. Unfortunately, many early-stage lung cancers do not have any symptoms or the symptoms are mild enough to attract the attention of patients and miss the opportunity to diagnose early-stage lung cancer.

    Lung cancer can be diagnosed at an early stage by taking a chest x-ray or chest CT. Chest x-ray can be used to diagnose lung cancer, which is better and safer than chest fluoroscopy, and if chest x-ray is abnormal, chest CT examination should be done further, tumor cells should be found in sputum, and flexible bronchoscopy should be done if necessary. It is worth mentioning that chest x-ray is not a panacea, and some early-stage lung cancers do not have abnormal manifestations on chest x-ray, and there are some "blind spots", which should be closely followed-up.

    Chest CT is more effective in detecting peripheral lung lesions than ordinary chest x-rays. The literature has reported that low-dose CT is 10 times more sensitive than ordinary chest x-ray for detecting small nodules in the lungs. Therefore, some scholars have suggested that smokers over the age of 60 should undergo annual low-dose spiral CT screening.

    In addition, percutaneous fine needle aspiration biopsy is extremely accurate in diagnosing malignant pulmonary nodules, with a sensitivity of 70% to 100%, but it is invasive and has certain complications, such as pneumothorax and hemoptysis. The above is the method of early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer.

    Whether it is a tumor in the cavity or a nodule in the lung, it cannot be said that it is lung cancer as soon as it is found, there must be a cytological biopsy, the current gold standard for diagnosing lung cancer or pathological histopathology and histological examination, the small nodules in the lung have been seen cancer cells through puncture, the diagnosis of lung cancer is benign adenoma in the bronchi, squamous cell carcinoma cells have been seen through puncture, and small cell lung cancer has been seen, we say that he has been diagnosed with lung cancer, so this cytopathological diagnosis is the gold standard.

    Because the symptoms of early lung cancer are not obvious, the diagnosis of lung cancer is mainly through lung CT, enhanced CT and even magnetic resonance. Pathological examination is required for final diagnosis. If it is ** type, it can be seen directly and clearly through a flexible bronchoscope.

    If peripheral, a definitive diagnosis can be obtained by needle or lung biopsy. If other abnormal signs of the lungs are found during the physical examination, they need to be carefully observed and eliminated one by one. It is recommended that you go to Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital to have a look, and standardize ** so as not to delay the condition.

    In clinical work, many patients with lung tumors are overwhelmed and go to the doctor everywhere, but they cannot get a formal and effective treatment, and even delay the condition and miss the opportunity. How to choose the best plan for patients with lung tumors of different stages and different physiques, so that the pain of patients can be minimized and the survival time can be prolonged, has always been the main problem in my clinical work. This article is my summary of the clinical literature and clinical experience.

    We hope to help patients with lung tumors choose the best plan and solve the confusion of patients.

    Early lung cancer lacks specific symptoms and can be difficult to detect。Because the early lung cancer lesion is small, the invasion of surrounding organs is not serious, and there is no distant metastasis, the possibility of ** resection is high and the prognosis is also better. Symptomatic lung cancers are mostly intermediate and advanced, and 80 are inoperable at the time of discovery.

    Therefore,Early detection and diagnosis is the key to improving the effectiveness of lung cancer。Lung cancer screening methods: There are many types of lung cancer screening items, including X-ray examination, tumor marker examination, sputum cell examination, etcLow-dose spiral CT scan.

    At present, low-dose spiral CT has become the most commonly used clinical tool for lung cancer screening and early diagnosis. First, CT is more sensitive than conventional X-raysCT found 6 times more stage lung cancer than chest x-rayThe maximum diameter of these lung cancer nodules is 1 cm. Secondly, CT examination is non-invasive and fast, and under the current technical conditions, patients can complete chest scans with bated breath in a few seconds, and the radiation dose is only millivolts, which is equivalent to the total amount of radiation in a person's natural environment throughout the year.

    Which types of patients need to be screened for lung cancer:Be over 40 years old, smoke 20 packs or more per year, or quit smoking for less than 15 years, or long-term passive smoking; Radiation exposure, occupational exposure, family history of lung cancer, history of chronic lung disease, history of tumors, it is best to do a CT screening every year.
