Staging of lung cancer is determined by whether the cancer has spread beyond the lungs. The spread to lymph nodes and other organs is used for staging. Because the lungs are large, cancerous tissue can grow within the lungs for a long time without spreading to surrounding tissues before diagnosis.
Even when symptoms such as cough and fatigue arise, patients often attribute them to other causes like a cold, pharyngitis, or bronchitis. This makes it difficult to detect cancer in the early stages, specifically stages 1 and 2. Staging of lung cancer is important for planning treatment.
This type of lung cancer is classified into two stages: limited and extensive disease.
