Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Lung cancer remains to be an important global issue as it is the leading cause of cancer\_ related mortality for both men and women worldwide .Since more than two thirds of cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage,the survival rate of lung cancer is one of the lowest among all cancers.
