Naoki Ozeki 교수의 연구실은 비소세포성 폐암 환자의 수술 전 평가 및 예후 예측에 중점을 두고 있으며, 척추주변 근육의 위축(서크로페니아)과 신체 기능 상태, 혈액 생체지표(CEA) 등 다양한 생체 정보를 종합적으로 분석하여 수술 위험도를 정밀하게 평가합니다. 특히 폐 기능 검사 지표(DLCO)와 종양의 조직학적 특성 간의 연관성 등 폐암의 병태생리학적 기전에 대한 기초 연구도 수행하고 있습니다. 이는 환자 맞춤형 치료 전략 수립과 수술 후 회복을 최적화하는 데 기여합니다.

The presence of both preoperative paraspinous muscle sarcopenia and short distance in 6MWD had an adverse effect on post-operative prognosis in patients with NSCLC, suggesting that preoperative assessment of thoracic sarcopenia and physical performance may be useful for risk stratification of surgical candidates with potential for targeted interventions.
Based on a careful clinical decision made using the current diagnostic imaging strategies, patients with a high probability of lung cancer are good candidates for therapeutic surgery, even without a preoperative or intraoperative definitive diagnosis.
In completely resected NSCLC patients, measuring the serum CEA level during the follow-up period is useful in patients in whom an elevated level normalizes after surgery, and the serum CEA level 1-3 months after surgery is considered to have prognostic significance regarding survival.
Our findings regarding the relationship between DLCO and the histopathological indexes of lung adenocarcinoma suggest that lung damage may be associated with carcinogenesis and progression.
We sought to determine the short- and long-term prognoses among 'marginal-risk' non-small cell lung cancer patients who have a predicted postoperative- (ppo) forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV<sub>1</sub>) of 30-60% and/or a ppo-diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DL<sub>CO</sub>) of 30-60%. The present study included 73 'marginal-risk' and 318 'normal-risk' patients who underwent anatomical resection for clinical stage I lung cancer between 2008 and 2012. The rate
Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is a mesenchymal neoplasm of subendothelial origin that can be found in all anatomical locations, but rarely in the lungs. A 71-year old female was referred to our hospital because of the increase in size of a solitary pulmonary mass. Chest contrast-enhanced dynamic computed tomography showed a well-circumscribed lobulated mass measuring 3.1×1.6 cm in the posterior segment of the right upper lobe of the lung. Positron emission tomography with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose
Our findings suggest that PPC patients may develop late-phase thoracic recurrence that is difficult to diagnose clinically after initial treatment in a potentially resectable setting.
Analysis of chest 3D-CT scans is a potential tool for predicting the loss of exercise capacity and pulmonary function after lung lobectomy.
Risk classification for LEC was associated with survival after lung cancer surgery, as well as post-recurrence treatment. The concept of physical performance-preserving surgery may contribute to improving the outcomes of current lung cancer treatment.
This study was designed to elucidate the predictive usefulness of the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST), a volume response (VR; a > 50% reduction in the tumor volume) and the post-neoadjuvant therapy maximum standardized uptake value (post-SUVmax) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after neoadjuvant therapy. Between December 2006 and June 2012, 33 patients with clinical stage II and III NSCLC who underwent pulmonary resection following neoadjuvant therapy wer
