Insulinoma-associated protein 1 is a sensitive and specific marker for lung neuroendocrine tumors in cytologic and surgical specimens

ConclusionsThe results from our study have further established the high sensitivity and specificity of INSM1 in the largest pulmonary cytologic and surgical cohorts to date. INSM1 either matched or outperformed the performance of existing neuroendocrine markers, and its combination with CD56 appeared to maximize test performance.
