1 Multi-Modality Mediastinal Staging for Lung Cancer Among Medicare Beneficiaries 
Farhood Farjah, MD, MPH, David R. Flum, MD, MPH, Scott D. Ramsey, MD, PhD, Patrick J. Heagerty, PhD, Rebecca Gaston Symons, MPH, Douglas E. Wood, MD  Journal of Thoracic Oncology  Volume 4, Issue 3, Pages (March 2009) DOI: /JTO.0b013e318197f4d9 Copyright © 2009 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 Change Over Time in the Use of Multi-Modality Mediastinal Staging. Single modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest computed tomography (CT). Bi-Modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest CT and positron emission tomography (PET) or invasive staging. Tri-Modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest CT, PET, and invasive staging.

3 FIGURE 2 Stage-Based Overall Survival by Number of Staging Modalities. Panel A, stage I; Panel B, stage II; Panel C, stage III; Panel D, stage IV. Single modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest computed tomography (CT) (solid line). Bi-Modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest CT and positron emission tomography (PET) or invasive staging (long dash). Tri-Modality staging refers to patients who underwent chest CT, PET, and invasive staging (dot).
