Abstract

BACKGROUND: Radiomics has shown promise in the diagnosis and prognosis of lung cancer. Here, we investigated the performance of computed tomography-based radiomic features, extracted from gross tumor volume (GTV), peritumoral volume (PTV), and GTV + PTV (GPTV), for predicting the pathological invasiveness of pure ground-glass nodules present in lung adenocarcinoma.
