To evaluate thin-section computed tomography (CT) (TSCT) features that differentiate adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA), and invasive adenocarcinoma (IVA), and to determine the size of solid portion on CT that correlates to pathological invasive components. Forty-eight patients were included. Nodules were classified into ground-glass nodule (GGN), partsolid, solid, and heterogeneous. Visual density of GGNs was subjectively evaluated using reference standard images: faint GGN (Ga), < - 700 Hounsfield unit (HU); intermediate GGN (Gb), from - 700 to - 400HU; dense GGN (Gc), > - 400HU; and mixed (Ga+Gb, Ga +Gc, and Gb+Gc). The evaluated TSCT findings included margin of nodule, distribution of solid portion, distribution of air bronchiologram, and pleural indentation. The longest diameters of the solid portion and the entire tumor were measured. Invasive diameters were measured in pathological specimens. Twenty-two AISs (16 GGNs [7 Ga, 5 Gb, 2 Gc, 1 Ga+Gc, 1 Gb+Gc], 4 partsolids, and 2 heterogeneous), 6 MIAs (1 GGN [Gb+Gc], 3 part-solids, and 2 solids), and 20 IVAs (1 GGN [Gb], 3 part-solids, and 16 solid) were found. The longest diameter (mean +/- standard deviation) of the solid portion and total tumor were 9.7 +/- 9.7 and 18.9 +/- 5.6 mm, respectively. Significant differences in TSCT findings between AIS and IVA were margin of nodule (Pearson chi-squared test, P= 0.004), distribution of air bronchiologram (P= 0.0148), and pleural indentation (P=0.0067). A solid portion >5.3mm on TSCT indicated MIA or IVA, and >7.3mm indicated IVA (receiver operating characteristic analysis, P<0.0001). Irregular margin, air bronchiologram with disruption and/or irregular dilatation, and pleural indentation may distinguish IVA from AIS. A 5.3 to 7.3mm solid portion on TSCT indicates MIA/IVA, and a solid portion > 7.3mm on TSCT indicates IVA.
