Abstract
Background
Early diagnosis and treatment are key to improving survival and prognosis of patients with lung cancer. Liquid biopsy and artificial intelligence (AI) can help diagnose early lung cancer.
Case presentation
We present a 68-year-old female with a family history of pulmonary nodules without smoking history who found multiple nodules in the lungs on physical examination. Malignant lung nodules were diagnosed based on AI evaluation and 341 circulating abnormal cells (CACs). Surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary adenocarcinoma and the CACs decreased to 151 at postoperative follow-up in one month and to 54 six months after surgery.
Conclusion
CACs helps to improve the accuracy of AI diagnosis of early lung cancer and the prognosis of patients with lung cancer at follow-up.
