Joint use of the radiomics method and frozen sections should be considered in the prediction of the final classification of peripheral lung adenocarcinoma manifesting as ground-glass nodules

Lung cancer is the most common cancer (11.6 % of total cancers) and the leading cause of death from cancers worldwide (18.4 % of total cancer deaths) [1], with adenocarcinoma being the most common histological type of lung cancer [2,3]. A new classification of lung adenocarcinoma was established in 2011, dividing lung adenocarcinoma into atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) [4], consistent with the classification of lung adenocarcinoma published by WHO in 2015 [5].
