Intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics combined with computed tomography features for predicting the invasiveness of lung adenocarcinoma presenting as a subpleural ground-glass nodule with a consolidation-to-tumor ratio ≤50.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Preoperative accurate judgment of the degree of invasiveness in subpleural ground-glass lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) with a consolidation-to-tumor ratio (CTR) ≤50% is very important for the choice of surgical timing and planning. This study aims to investigate the performance of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics combined with computed tomography (CT) features for predicting the invasiveness of LUAD presenting as a subpleural ground-glass nodule (GGN) with a CTR ≤50%.

Methods

A total of 247 patients with LUAD from our hospital were randomly divided into two groups, i.e., the training cohort (n=173) and the internal validation cohort (n=74) (7:3 ratio). Furthermore, 47 patients from three other hospitals were collected as the external validation cohort. In the tr
