RESEARCH & PUBLICATIONS

Pulmonary Resection & Lung-Sparing Surgery Research

Professor Chris Cao has contributed to research examining pulmonary resection techniques and the surgical management of patients requiring removal of part of the lung.

His published work includes research relating to lobectomy, sublobar resection, segmentectomy, pulmonary function and the balance between effective cancer treatment and preservation of healthy lung tissue.

This collection brings together Professor Cao's published research relating to pulmonary resection, lung-sparing surgical strategies and outcomes following lung surgery.
