Predicting lung function after lung cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how well your lungs work after surgery for lung cancer. It uses special scans and breathing tests to help doctors better predict your recovery.

This study follows people with stage I lung cancer to see how they do after surgery. It aims to learn what affects recovery and long-term outcomes.
This trial tests if doing exercise before lung cancer surgery can help people with moderate-to-high risk. Participants will exercise for a short period to see if it improves their recovery.
This trial uses 3D models from your CT scan to help doctors predict how well your lungs will work after surgery. It is for people having a certain type of lung surgery (VATS) to remove part of a lung.
This study uses a deep learning computer program to check how well your lungs recover after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It aims to help doctors better understand your recovery and improve care.
This study measures your lung function and physical fitness before surgery to see if these tests can predict how quickly you'll recover. The researchers want to understand which patients might have an easier or harder recovery after their operation.
This study tests if a personalized exercise program helps people recover after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. You may join if your first follow-up scan shows no cancer and you are generally healthy.
