About this trial

The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency and implications of pulmonary hypertension in lung cancer patients. To do so, data will be collected from all lung cancer patients at the university hospital Giessen. All data will be analyzed for possible hints of pulmonary hypertension as a comorbidity in lung cancer patients. All information will be generated from the regular guidelines based course of treatment and there will be no interventions. This study will serve as a prospective register for all lung cancer patients treated at the university hospital Giessen.
