Stopped early · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Lung Cancer

In brief

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F 18 (\^18FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scans, may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying \^18FDG PET/CT scans to see how well they predict response in patients undergoing chemotherapy for stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
