Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Multifocal non-small cell lung cancer has historically been separated into synchronous primary lung cancers or intrapulmonary metastases with the use of histopathology. We hypothesize that using targeted next-generation sequencing of key driver mutations in multifocal non-small cell lung cancer will improve our ability to differentiate intrapulmonary metastases from synchronous primary lung cancers....
