OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively investigate the role of multiple features seen on thin-section CT (TSCT) in the differential diagnosis of ground-glass nodules (GGNs) measuring 5-10 mm in diameter as invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC). MATERIALS AND METHODS. The TSCT features of 313 surgically diagnosed GGNs from 288 patients were retrospectively reviewed. A logistic regression model was applied, and the AUC values for the model and the size and attenuation of the lesions were compared using ROC curve analysis. RESULTS. A total of 247 lung adenocarcinomas in situ (AISs) and minimally invasive adenocarcinomas (MIAs) (hereafter referred to as the AIS-MIA group) and 66 invasive adenocarcinomas (IACs) were identified. Compared with the AIS-MIA group, the IAC groups were significantly larger in size and had higher attenuation values, a higher frequency of mixed GGNs (all p < 0.001), bubblelike appearance, spiculation, pleural indentation, different locations, and a lower frequency of clear tumor-lung interface (all p < 0.05). The logistic model included size and attenuation (both p < 0.001; odds ratio [ OR], 1.872 and 1.009, respectively) as well as tumor-lung interface (p = 0.001; OR, 0.242), bubblelike appearance (p < 0.05; OR, 2.205), and type of nodule. The AUC value for the logistic model was 0.847 (sensitivity, 80.3%; specificity, 81.0%) and was significantly higher than that for size or attenuation (both p < 0.01). CONCLUSION. Radiologic features could help in the differential diagnosis of a GGN that was 5-10 mm in diameter as IAC versus AIS or MIA. GGNs larger than 8.12 mm and with attenuation greater than -449.52 HU were more likely to be IAC.
