Combined measurement of circulating tumor cell counts and serum tumor marker levels enhances the screening efficiency for malignant versus benign pulmonary nodules

Abstract Background The high false‐positive rate for pulmonary nodules (PNs) from using low‐dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening can lead to overuse of invasive procedures, overtreatment, and patient anxiety. Therefore, it is very important to develop new diagnostic methods. Methods A negative...
