| Abstract |
From a review of selected studies on occupational and environmental lung diseases (malignant and nonmalignant) the present difficulties in adding biomarkers (biological markers) to the tools for their investigation are discussed. An interdisciplinary approach, based on a matrix of biomarker combinations, is therefore proposed as the most suitable. |
