Increase in number of circulating disseminated epithelial cells after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer monitored by MAINTRAC<sup>® </sup>is a predictor for relapse: A preliminary report
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Lung cancer still remains one of the most commonly occurring solid tumors and even in stage Ia, surgery fails in 30% of patients who develop distant metastases. It is hypothesized that these must have developed from occult circulatin...
