Abstract

On the basis of computed tomography (CT) findings, published recommendations for the clinical care of pulmonary nodules differentiate between solid and subsolid nodules, and solid nodules have a significantly worse prognosis than subsolid nodules, even if the nodules are subcentimeter in size. The prognosis of patients with subsolid nodules is predicted by solid size of the tumor. However, there are almost no established criteria for assessing the prognostic relevance of solid tumors on CT. In this study, we investigated the association between three-dimensional (3D) volumetry value on CT scan and the postoperative prognosis in patients with early-stage solid lung adenocarcinoma.
