Lung Cancer Stage I: 77-92%; Lung Cancer Stage II: 53-68%; Lung Cancer Stage III: 13-36%; Lung Cancer Stage IV: less than 10%. Early treatment is the important factor to improve the 5-year relative survival rate of lung cancer patients. Doctors use staging information to help ...
Staging can be a complex undertaking, but generally, if your lung cancer is listed as stage 1, it has been discovered early on and has not spread beyond your lungs. In stage 2, cancer cells will be found in the lung and in lymph nodes near the tumor. Stage 3 sees cancer cells in ...
