Prediction of single pulmonary nodule growth by CT radiomics and clinical features — a one-year follow-up study

ABSTRACT:

Background

With the development of imaging technology, an increasing number of pulmonary nodules have been found. Some pulmonary nodules may gradually grow and develop into lung cancer, while others may remain stable for many years. Accurately predicting the growth of pulmonary nodules in advance is of great clinical significance for early treatment. The purpose of this study was to establish a predictive model using radiomics and to study its value in predicting the growth of pulmonary nodules.

Materials and methods

According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 228 pulmonary nodules in 228 subjects were included in the study. During the one-year follow-up, 69 nodules grew larger, and 159 nodules remained stable. All the nodules were randomly divided into the trainin
