TITLE DESCRIPTION
Lung cancer is the number one cancer that has fatally affected the most people in the U.S., and is more prevalent than breast, prostate and colon cancers. The survival rate
of lung cancer is extremely low; an efficient, early-stage diagnostic test has still not been identified. Tobacco smoke is the prime reason for developing lung cancer. There
are two types of lung cancer: small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which is around 15%; and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which is 85% of the total lung cancers. SCLC
cannot be operated upon, and hence the survival rate is low. NSCLC is the more common of the two types of lung cancer, and its growth is slower compared to the
SCLC. It is of three types as per the cell structure: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and the large cell carcinoma.

SCOPE OF THE REPORT
The report will analyze the lung cancer market as per diagnostics and therapeutics, and will also focus on the regulations and government supported programs impacting
