The Top 20 Developers Of Molecular Diagnostic Tests For Lung Cancer

Abstract

According to the World Health Organization' s International Agency for Research on Cancer, lung cancer has been the most common cancer in the world for several decades and by 2008, there were an estimated 1.61 million new cases, representing 12.7% of all new cancers. It was also the most common cause of death from cancer, with 1.38 million deaths.

Lung cancer is the most common cancer in men worldwide (1.1 million cases), with high rates in Central-Eastern and Southern Europe, Northern America and Eastern Asia. In females, incidence rates are generally lower, but worldwide, lung cancer is now the fourth most frequent cancer of women (513,000 cases, 8.5% of all cancers) and the second most common cause of death from cancer (427,000 deaths). The highest incidence rate is observed in Northern America (where lung cancer it is now the second most frequent cancer in women) and the lowest in Middle Africa (15th most frequent cancer).
