If the miRNAexpression levels of
patients with lung cancer adenocarcinoma
are analyzed then a set of miRNA
biomarkers present within the blood will
be identified that are able to accurately
diagnose lung cancer.
The purpose of this experiment is to
identify valuable miRNA lung cancer
biomarkers that are present within the
blood plasma. These biomarkers are
identified through the use of a learning
algorithm , specifically a Support Vector
Machine. Often miRNA can be found
circulating through the bloodstream,. If
miRNA biomarker s of lung cancer are
present within the blood plasma, then a
simple blood test may be able to diagnose a
patient with lung cancer. This can reduce
the use of invasive tests, such as biopsies
or imaging tests, thus reducing expenses.
