More and more medical centers are now combining high-resolution CT scans well with deep learning and artificial intelligence for lung cancer screening, resulting in significantly improved diagnostic sensitivity. Furthermore, the increased molecular alterations in lung cancer were demonstrated not only in tumor tissue, but also in other body organs. For example, circulating tumor DNA combined with next-generation sequencing is now becoming a popular method for lung cancer diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring. Therefore, the first focus of this topic is on such achievements in early diagnosis of lung cancer, especially non-invasive tests such as liquid biopsy.
Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are used in medical imaging to indicate whether the patient radiation dose or amount of administered activity from a specific procedure are unusually high or low for that procedure. DRLs are the first step in the optimization process to manage patient dose commensurate with the medical purpose of the procedure. Achievable dose is an optimization goal, based on survey data, and typically defined as the median value (50th percentile) of the dose distribution of standard techniques and technologies in widespread use. The overarching goal is to obtain image quality consistent with the clinical objective, while avoiding unnecessary radiation. Too low an exposure...
