Claim:
1. A method of evaluating lung cancer, comprising: a concentration value criterion evaluating step of evaluating, by a central processing unit (CPU) executing a lung cancer-evaluating program stored on a computer-readable recording medium, a lung cancer state in a subject to be evaluated, based on concentration values of at least Lys and His contained in amino acid concentration data on the concentration values of the at least two amino acids in blood of the subject, wherein the concentration value criterion evaluating step further includes a discriminant value calculating step of calculating, by the CPU, a discriminant value that is a value of a multivariate discriminant, based on both (i) the concentration values of at least Lys and His and (ii) the multivariate discriminant for evaluating the lung cancer state containing at least Lys and His explanatory variables.
