Clinical and computed tomography characteristics of non‐small cell lung cancer with ALK gene rearrangement: Comparison with EGFR mutation and ALK/EGFR‐negative lung cancer

Background The study was conducted to evaluate the clinical and computed tomography (CT) findings of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients to distinguish between ALK gene rearrangement, EGFR mutation, and non‐ALK/EGFR (no genetic abnormalities). Methods We enrolled 201 patients with primary NS...
