Brief description This research aims to simplify the initial work-up for lung cancer diagnosis. Currently most patients undergo complex investigations and multiple biopsies. Common imaging technology e.g. ultrasound, PET and CT scans may help choose the best and least invasive biopsy procedure. My research will explore this through three complementary studies. If positive, >10000 Australians with lung cancer will benefit each year, and the majority of them will only have to undergo one biopsy procedure.
