Abstract:Objectives
This study aimed to investigate predictive visceral pleural invasion (VPI) occurrence value of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LA).
Patients and methods
A total of 388 LA patients were divided into D1ab, D1c, D1, D2, D2a, D2b, D3, and all patient groups based on their tumor diameter (D). Patients were also classified into negative VPI (VPI-n) and positive VPI (VPI-p) groups according to VPI… Show more
