70 results about "Lung cancer screening" patented technology

Lung cancer screening refers to cancer screening strategies used to identify early lung cancers before they cause symptoms, at a point where they are more likely to be curable. More than 224,000 new cases of lung cancer are expected in the United States in 2016 with approximately 155,000 deaths expected in 2017. 57% were diagnosedin advanced stages (III and IV) where survival is poor. Screening research addresses potential differences in multiple parameters between groups of research subjects with and without screening. Because there is a substantially higher probability of long-term survival following treatment in localized (55%) than in advanced stage (5%), the specific rationale of lung cancer screening is to diagnose the disease in stage I. Research parameters include population cancer-specific mortality, all-cause mortality, long-term survival following diagnosis of cancer, risks of screening and cost-effectiveness. Screening studies for lung cancer have only been done in high risk populations in the U.S., such as smokers and workers with occupational exposure to certain substances. Results from large randomized studies have recently prompted a large number of professional organizations and governmental agencies in the U.S. to now recommend lung cancer screening in select populations.

Method for identifying miRNA in blood serum of patient with lung cancer by Solexa technology

A method for identifying micro ribonucleic acid (RNA) in the blood serum of a lung cancer patient through Solexa technology belongs to the biological medicine technical field, in particular relating to a Solexa technology for measuring the expression of micro RNA in the blood serum of a lung cancer patient as well as an application of the Solexa technology in clinic diagnosis and therapy such as early diagnosis of lung cancer, curative effect appraisement and drug effect appraisement, etc. The Solexa technology comprises the following steps that: a Solexa sequencing method is used to measure the content of micro RNA in the blood serum of a lung cancer testee; the appraisement of the physiological and/or pathological status of the testee is to carry out lung cancer diagnosis of the testee; and the physiological and/or pathological status of the testee is tested after the testee receives a to-be-tested object. The Solexa sequencing method has the advantages of wide detection pedigree, high sensitivity, low detection cost, convenient material obtaining and easily stored samples, etc.; moreover, the method can be widely used in related operations including lung cancer screening, etc. so as to improve the conditions of low specificity and low sensitivity caused by individual difference which is difficult to be overcome by a single marker; therefore, the method can substantially increase the clinic detection rate of lung cancer, and is an effective way to carry out early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Application of fungal microbiome as marker in preparation, treatment, screening and lung cancer diagnosis

The invention provides application of a fungal microbiome as a marker in preparation, treatment, screening and lung cancer diagnosis. By constructing a fungal microbiome DNA enrichment and extractionmethod, fungal microbiome DNA is extracted from tissues, feces and alveolar lavage fluid, and ITS sequencing and metagenome sequencing are applied to fungal microbiome and gene function analysis, wherein aspergillus polyangius is enriched in tumor tissues, candida albicans is enriched in tumor tissues and para-carcinoma tissues, and malassezia is enriched in alveolar lavage fluid; by detecting these target strains or molecular markers, lung cancer can be found and intervened as early as possible, and the target strains or molecular markers are expected to be used as important indicators for lung cancer screening; and in addition, the characteristics of the type and quantity of fungi are obtained through DNA sequencing results of fungal florae in feces, tissues and alveolar lavage fluid samples of different parts of lung adenocarcinoma patients, and the lung cancer is more accurately screened and diagnosed in an assisted mode based on the quantity and ratio characteristics of the fungispecifically enriched in the lung cancer.

System and method for realizing risk classification of pulmonary nodules in computer software system

The present invention relates to a system and method for realizing the classification of pulmonary nodules risk degree in a computer software system, including an image CT value density distribution calculation module, which is used to calculate CT value density distribution characteristics according to unsupervised clustering; classification of pulmonary nodule risk degree The module is used to implement the training and classification of the risk degree of pulmonary nodules using the CT value density distribution feature of the pulmonary nodules according to the supervised machine learning model, and also includes a system for implementing the above method. Using the system and method for judging the degree of risk of pulmonary nodules in the computer software system, to a certain extent, before invasive pathological biopsy, it can be used to assist in judging the benign and malignant of pulmonary nodules from a clinical perspective, thereby improving the accuracy of pathological biopsy; Unnecessary invasive biopsy of patients, avoiding unnecessary CT follow-up of patients, and providing more effective information processing methods for improving the accuracy of lung cancer screening, detection, and diagnosis have a wide range of references.

Pulmonary nodule database and prediction model construction method and system based on column diagram

The invention belongs to the technical field of data analysis, and discloses a method and a system for constructing a pulmonary nodule database and a prediction model based on a column diagram. The method comprises the steps of collecting LDCT features and clinical related information of benign and malignant pulmonary nodule patients with clear pathological diagnosis to construct a benign and malignant pulmonary nodule database; incorporating a plurality of LDCT indexes and serum CEA levels into a Logistic regression model by adopting an entry method, and forming a pulmonary nodule malignant prediction model; and performing external verification on the constructed pulmonary nodule malignant prediction model. The invention provides an effective and practical malignant pulmonary nodule prediction model jointly applying the LDCT index and the serum CEA level, the malignant probability of the pulmonary nodule can be accurately predicted, and a basis is provided for rapid and reasonable clinical management and effective clinical treatment of a pulmonary nodule patient. The method overcomes the problems of high LDCT false positive rate in lung cancer screening and insufficient sensitivity and specificity in individual application of tumor markers.
