Exercise after lung cancer surgery: a pilot study
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
