HRCT morphological characteristics distinguishing minimally invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma from invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma appearing as subsolid nodules with a diameter of ≤3 cm

To differentiate retrospectively the morphological characteristics at high-resolution computed tomography (CT) between minimally invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma (IAC) appearing as subsolid nodules (SNs) with a diameter of ≤3 cm and to provide information to help operative decision-making.
