1. Adult patients (18 or over) with histologically proven or clinically diagnosed primary non small cell lung cancer with potentially radically treatable disease
2. Clinically diagnosed non small cell lung cancer defined as radiological diagnosis of lung cancer on chest CT with sufficient confidence to trigger staging investigations
3. Potentially radically treatable disease defined as stage IIIb or less on diagnostic CT (ie T14, N02, M0)
4. Performance status 02 (fit to undergo surgery if indicated)
5. Patient must have given written informed consent and be willing to comply with the protocol intervention and follow up.
1. Any psychiatric or other disorder likely to impact on informed consent
2. Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease which make it undesirable the for the patient to participate in the trial
3. Pregnancy
4. Contraindications to MRI (e.g. cardiac pacemaker, severe claustrophobia, inability to lie flat)
5. Unequivocal metastatic or N3 disease on diagnostic CT chest and abdomen (including M1a disease; malignant pleural effusion)
6. Further staging work up not indicated in the opinion of the MDT due to poor performance status or patient choice.
7. Histologies other than non small cell lung cancer
