EGFR Mutation Testing Practices within the Asia Pacific Region: Results of a Multicenter Diagnostic Survey
Conclusions: In 2011, EGFR mutation testing practices varied widely across Asia. These data provide a reference platform from which to improve the molecular diagnosis of NSCLC, and EGFR mutation testing in particular, in Asia. (Source: Journal of Thoracic Oncology)

Perception of Lung Cancer among the General Population and Comparison with Other Cancers
Conclusions: We have identified knowledge gaps in the perception of lung cancer and have highlighted a need for a public information campaign on lung-cancer screening to promote the good survival rate from early-stage disease and the progress achieved with new therapeutic strategies.

Follow-Up of Patients after Stereotactic Radiation for Lung Cancer: A Primer for the Nonradiation Oncologist
Conclusions: The appropriate follow-up of patients after SABR requires collaborative input from nearly all members of the thoracic multidisciplinary team, and evidence is available to guide treatment decisions. Further research is required to develop better predictors of toxicity and recurrence. (Source: Journal of Thoracic Oncology)
