Patient must have a clinically suspicious stage I (CT1-2 N0 M0) lung lesion. 3. Patient must have pre-operative imaging procedures within 60 days prior to the date of the lung resection; Helical CT scan of teh chest and CT scan of the upper abdomen, including the liver and adrenal glands (with or without IV contrast), as clinically indicated.

If patient is a survivor of a prior cacner, the following criteria are met: a. Patient has undergone potentially curative therapy for all prior malignancies, b. No evidence of any prior malignancies for at least 5 years with no evidence of recurrence (except for effectively treated basal cell or squamous carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in-situ of the cervix that has been effectively treated by surgery alone, or lobular carcinoma in-situ of the ipsilateral or contralateral breast treated by surgery alone), c. Patient is deemed by their treating physician to be at low risk for recurrence from prior malignancies. |
Exclusion Criteria: A patient will NOT be eligible for inclusion in this study is ANY of the following criteria apply: 1.
