ProLung is a medical technology company specializing in innovative predictive analytics technology and non-invasive test for the risk stratification of indeterminate pulmonary nodules that can lead to lung cancer. The rapid, non-invasive, and radiation-free ProLung Test⢠was developed to rapidly assess the risk of malignancy in lung nodules found in the chest. Currently, patients typically wait between three months and three and one-half years to have the risk of malignancy assessed through periodic CT scans. Until malignancy is determined to be likely, invasive biopsy and treatment may be significantly delayed. The ProLung Test can be completed in fewer than 30 minutes and can provide results within 24 hours. According to the American Cancer Society and the American Lung Association, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women; about one out of four cancer deaths are from lung cancer. They estimate that in 2017, more people in the United States will die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. Until recently, asymptomatic lung cancer was detected only incidentally. Currently, a lung cancer screen now reimbursed by Medicare, is performed by low-dose computed tomography. This may lead to a dramatic increase in the number of individuals with lung nodules detected, which is intensifying the need for a risk stratification test such as the ProLung Test. Source
