Obstructive pneumonia and lung cancer

If you can't see obstructive pneumonia, you think it must be lung cancer. This is mainly seen through CT. Under bronchoscope, you can see the new organisms in the airway before obstructive pneumonia. In this case, it is very likely to consider lung cancer. Obstructive pneumonia is not necessarily lung cancer, because sometimes some other chronic inflammations can also cause obstructive pneumonia, such as chronic pneumonia, which may be obstructive pneumonia. You can go to the hospital for examination to find out the pathogen of obstructive pneumonia, and then treat it according to the pathogen to avoid aggravating the inflammation.

What targeted drugs should be used for brain metastasis of lung cancer?

According to the results of genetic testing, patients with lung cancer brain metastasis take some targeted drugs. Lung cancer also has a gene mutation ALK. Alectinib, ceritinib and crizotinib are available targeted drugs for ALK, of which crizotinib is the first generation ALK. Alectinib and ceritinib are the second and third generation targeted drugs for ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer brain metastasis. When lung cancer brain metastasis occurs, eat more high-calorie, high-vitamin, high-protein foods, and eat more anti-cancer foods, such as whole grains, meat, eggs, beans, etc.

The difference between lung nodules and lung cancer

Lung cancer lesions are round or oval, and can be divided into lobate or memory-shaped, with spiculated edges, and may be accompanied by localized pneumonia or atelectasis. The main difference between pulmonary nodules and lung cancer is that the concepts, causes, and treatments of the two are different. Pulmonary nodules are a multi-system, multi-organ granulomatous disease. The cause of the disease is currently unclear, but it may be related to pathogen infection, tuberculosis, pulmonary fibrosis and other factors. If there is calcification in the nodule, the shape of the nodule is divided into lobate, the edge has spiculated edges, and there is bronchial inflation sign in the nodule, the nodule has ground-glass opacity and consolidation sign, then it is more likely to consider malignant tumors.
