Abstract

BACKGROUND: The presence of occult lymph node metastasis (OLNM) has significant implications for the staging, treatment and prognosis of patients with tumors. This study aimed to explore the potential predictive value of dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography (SDCT) quantitative parameters obtained via multimodal tumor tracking (MMTT) for OLNM in clinical stage 1 (c1) pure solid lung adenocarcinoma (LAC).
