Abstract :
[en] Early alterations of pulmonary functions have been serially tested along radio- chemotherapy given in lung cancer patients with a curative intent. Changes in VC,FEV1 and TKCO/VA appear only moderate. However further insight is needed to ascertain a possible long term effect of such a combined treatment modality.
