Grade 5 in lung cancer is probably more frequent than any other site. It is the only site where patients actually die from our treatment. I get the feeling that fatal pneumonitis is under reported.
That's interesting. Med onc seems to think we can just SBRT probably-benign lung nodules without a tissue dx ad infinitum without a problem.
