Learn and debate about the following four hot lung cancer topics: using the full diagnostic potential of computed tomography (CT) lung cancer screening beyond the nodule; reappraising N2 disease in the era of immunotherapy and targeted therapies; controlling stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with modern molecular diagnostics and systemic therapies; and tackling brain metastases and the primary tumour.
