A Model for Predicting Malignant Sub-pleural Solid Masses Using Grayscale Ultrasound and Ultrasound Elastography

This article aimed to establish a prediction model of grayscale sonography and ultrasound elastography for malignant sub-pleural solid masses and evaluate its diagnostic value. The study included 153 patients, including 89 patients with malignant tumors and 64 patients with benign diseases. Statistical differences between the malignant and benign groups were found in the factors of age, air bronchogram, borderline, shape and elasticity score (p
