Abstract

Lung cancer has been the largest cause of cancer deaths worldwide with an overall 5-year survival rate of only 15%. Its symptoms can be detected only in advanced stages where the patient's chance of survival is very low, thus causing the mortality rate to be the highest among all other types of cancer.
