Abstract
Factors that predict a poor outcome in patients with resected N1 NSCLC are the involvement of multiple N1 stations, multiple N1 nodes, and the lack of adjuvant chemotherapy. Integrated PET-CT is more sensitive for detecting N1 disease then dedicated PET. These data may influence preoperative or postoperative therapy, or both.
