The LTRC will facilitate histopathological research of pulmonary diseases by collecting lung
tissues from donors and preparing and distributing collections of tissue specimens to
researchers within and outside the LTRC. Collections of specimens will be linked to
individual clinical data appropriate to the particular disease. The primary goal of the LTRC
is to identify participants with suspected lung cancer or metastatic disease who are willing
to provide informed consent for research use of their specimens and data. Secondarily, the
LTRC investigators intend to collect clinical data, limited exposure data, physiologic
studies, and radiographic studies from these participants.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Adults ages 21 or older who are undergoing lung surgery for suspected malignancy or
metastases.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Diagnosis of cystic fibrosis or pulmonary hypertension.

- Any other condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, precludes
participation.

- Failure to obtain written consent.
