 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 24 Clinical features and diagnosis of lung cancer aged Technology Research [Keywords:] Aged, lung cancer, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment technology In the UK, the high incidence of lung cancer at the age of 75 to 80 years old, in the general population, lung cancer incidence rate of 69/10 million, more than 75 years of age in the incidence of the population to rise to 751/10 million. It is estimated that worldwide 50 million per year more than half of patients with lung cancer in patients older than 70 years (1,2). In this paper, the elderly and the clinical features of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment technology advances are summarized below. 1 Clinical features of elderly lung cancer 1.1 Characteristics of the pathogenesis Pathogenesis of lung cancer in the elderly is currently considered the following points: carcinogenic additive theory. Exposure to carcinogenic factors in elderly long time, easily lead to the accumulation of carcinogenic effects of the cancer cells. A large number of data indicate that (1), smoking with lung cancer have a dose response relationship, long-term heavy smoking is an important factor in lung cancer. In addition, air pollution, occupational and other carcinogens accumulating in the body easily lead to tumors, old organ dysfunction, so that cancer prone, such as immune surveillance of tumor cells decreased, can not identify and remove mutant cells, the elderly is usually accompanied by degenerative changes in cells, physiological dysfunction, which affects organ function. in the elderly lung cancer patients , cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD incidence of lung cancer patients in other age groups is about 2 times. there is data, 966 cases with a median agegt; 70 years old patients with lung cancer, associated with COPD and the rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease were 7.6% and 26.3%, and each complication o
