EarlyCDT–Lungis designed to be used in conjunction with diagnostic imaging, including CT, X–ray and PET scanning. Depending upon the results of these tests and others your physician may recommend such as sputum cytology or bronchoscopy, your physician may request a biopsy. A biopsy is the only definitive diagnostic procedure to confirm the presence, type and stage of lung cancer.
