Need some help guys:

What is the minimal functional lung volume required in order to be considered for a lobectomy?

And what are the rate of progression to Cervical Cancer for the various cervical lesions: LCIN, HCIN, ASCUS etc.

Thanks! Cant find the data in my internet searches, but I know it was mentioned somewhere in Kaplan before.

I guess the expected FEV1 in the rest of the lung (after V/Q scan) should be above 80%

thanks!

There should be a TV of 800 cc post surgery

drkinjaldesai, i dont think the recommendations include tidal volume as a criteria.. i think the criteria is FEV1

oopss my bad sorry guys its an FEV1 of 800 cc post surgery

yeah my mistake too it's 800ml not 80%
