Does radiation risk potentially associated with low-dose CT screening of adult smokers for lung cancer?
Given the estimated upper limit of a 5.5% increase in lung cancer risk attributable to annual CT-related radiation exposure, a mortality benefit of considerably more than 5% may be necessary to outweigh the potential radiation risks.
Rearrangement of NUT is infrequent in TETs. We propose that caution should be taken to distinguish t(15;19) thymic carcinoma from other mediastinal carcinomas, as NUT midline carcinomas are often associated with dreadful prognosis or overt lethality.
