ABSTRACT

Objective ToexplorethevalueofCTtargetreconstructionforpureground-glassnodules(pGGN)onidentifyingthe invasivenessofthelungadenocarcinoma.Methods ThepGGNs weredividedintopre-invasivegroup[atypicaladenomatoushyperplasia (AAH),andadenocarcinomainsitu(AIS)]andinvasivegroup[minimallyinvasiveadenocarcinoma(MIA),andinvasiveadenocarcinomas(IA)] accordingtothepathologicresults.ThemorphologicfeaturesofpGGNonCTincludedthelargestdiameters,CTvalue,pleuralindentation,air bronchogram,bubblelucency,vesselconvergence,vesseldilatation,lobulationandspeculation.Twodiagnosticiansevaluatedthemorphologic featuresofpGGNonCT.Binary L o g istic regressionwasusedtoassesstheassociationbetweenCTfindingsandhistopathological classification.ROCcurveanalysiswasusedindiameterandCTvalue.Results Betweenpre-invasiveandinvasivegroup,therewere significantdifferencesindiameter,CTvalue,spiculationandvesseldilatation(P<0.05).Nodifferencewasfoundinlobulated-margin,bubble lucency,airbronchogram,vascularconvergenceorpleuralindentationbetweenthetwogroups(P>0.05).Thediagnosticthresholds forpredictingpGGOinfiltrationwere8.75mminmaximumdiameterand-605HUinCTvaluerespectively.Conclusion ThepGGNwitha diametermorethan87.5mm,theCTvaluemorethan-605HU,andpresencesofspiculationandvesseldilatationsuggeststhatpGGOisinvasive.
