Abstract

The good prognosis of lepidic predominant invasive adenocarcinoma (LPA) and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS)/microinvasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) in the pathological subtypes of early lung adenocarcinoma is similar, and the means to distinguish LPA from non-LPA is urgently needed in clinical practice. This study intends to analyze the correlation between positron emission computed tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) maximal standard uptake value (SUVmax) with CT three-dimensional reconstruction parameters and the pathological subtypes of early lung adenocarcinoma with part-solid nodules (PSNs) in preoperative imaging. The data of early lung adenocarcinoma patients who underwent anatomical pneumonectomy at the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from January 2016 to January 2019 retrospectively analyzed and subsolid nodules on imaging were showed. All patients with enhanced chest CT and PET/CT data can be obtained completely, using Mimics software to perform three-dimensional reconstruction to obtain tumor volume, 3-dimensional mean-CT value (3Dm-CT) of tumor and SUVmax, using SPSS 25.0 for statistical analysis and GraphPad Prism 8.3.0 for drawing receiver operating curve (ROC). P<0.05 indicates ...Continue Reading
