Abstract

PURPOSE: To develop a novel multimodal data fusion model by incorporating computed tomography (CT) images and clinical variables based on deep learning for predicting the invasiveness risk of stage I lung adenocarcinoma that manifests as ground-glass nodules (GGNs) and compare the diagnostic performance of it with that of radiologists.
