Differentiating between benign and malignant pure ground-glass nodule (pGGN) is of great clinical significance. The aim our study was to evaluate whether AI-derived quantitative parameters could predict benignity versus early-stage tumors manifesting as pGGN. A total 1,538 patients with pGGN detected by chest CT at different campuses hospital from May 2013 December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. This included data, well parameters. All randomly divided into a training group (n=893), an internal validation (n=382), external (n=263). Hazard factors for identified using univariate analysis multivariate logistic regression analysis. Independent risk then screened, prediction nomogram constructed maximize predictive efficacy application value. performance the evaluated ROC curves calibration curves, while decision curve (DCA) used assess net benefit threshold. final model nine independent predictors (age, location, minimum value, standard deviation, kurtosis, compactness, energy, costopleural distance, volume) developed user-friendly nomogram. AUCs in training, validation, cohorts 0.696 (95% CI: 0.638-0.754), 0.627 0.533-0.722), 0.672 0.543-0.801), respectively. plot demonstrated good correlation observed predicted values, remained valid cohort. DCA showed that model's acceptable, providing substantial application. nomogram, based on parameters, visually displays overall score differentiate lesions may serve convenient screening tool use provides reference formulating individualized follow-up treatment plans

ABSTRACT Background and Objective Iriscope, a 1.3 mm video endoscopic probe introduced through an r‐EBUS catheter, allows for the direct visualisation of small peripheral pulmonary nodules (PPNs). This study assessed ability physicians with different levels experience in bronchoscopy, artificial intelligence (AI) to predict malignant nature PPNs during Iriscope endoscopy. Methods Patients undergoing bronchoscopy < 20 definite diagnosis were analysed. Senior Junior independently interpreted video‐recorded sequences, classifying them as tumoral (malignant) or non‐tumoral, blind final diagnosis. A deep learning (DL) model was also trained on images tested set patients comparison human interpretation. Diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F1 score calculated. Results Sixty‐one (median size 15 mm, IQR: 11–20 mm) included. The technique allowed lesions all cases. cancer 37 cases benign lesion 24 outperformed junior recognising images, balanced accuracy 85.4% versus 66.7%, respectively, when compared DL 71.5% but not superior senior physicians. Conclusion could be valuable tool management, especially experienced operators. Applied enhance overall performance less diagnosing malignancy. image

ABSTRACT The increasing adoption of lung cancer screening programs and advancements in imaging technologies has significantly increased the detection pulmonary nodules, both incidentally through screening. This document provides a comprehensive guide for clinicians to address complexities managing indeterminate nodules (IPNs), emphasising person‐centred multidisciplinary care. IPNs are categorised based on size morphology, with specific guidelines malignancy risk stratification, diagnostic evaluation, follow‐up. Dedicated nodule evaluation teams (LNETs) meetings (MDMs) play critical role ensuring guideline adherence, streamlining pathway, reducing unnecessary investigations, improving outcomes. Structured IPN have demonstrated benefits early detection, improved early‐stage cancer, reduced delays treatment initiation. Effective management strategies include use standardised reporting templates, utilising validated models such as PanCan model agreed protocols follow up IPNs. highlights importance accessing prior assess growth accounting technical differences between computed tomography (CT) scans. Any considered be growing requires discussion at MDM decision act tissue biopsy appropriate. A will assist optimising safest most efficient techniques characteristics profile. By integrating expertise adhering evidence‐based protocols, services can improve timely diagnosis IPNs, minimise over‐investigation, reduce chance overdiagnosis ultimately enhance patient outcomes survival.

Background: Low-dose computed tomography-based lung cancer screening (LCS) has demonstrated efficacy in reducing mortality. However, concerns about overdiagnosis and overtreatment hinder global LCS implementation. Methods: Here, we report the unique case of a slow-growing 1 cm pure ground-glass opacity (GGO) lung, known for 15 years, which unexpectedly developed into 5 mixed GGO within year, with an increased solid component FDG-PET uptake. Results: The patient, asymptomatic, underwent right upper lobectomy lymphadenectomy, even complicated postoperative chylothorax, later revealing to be affected by only unchanged adenocarcinoma situ (AIS). Conclusions: This serves as reminder potential behavior pre-invasive lesions, can mimic invasive neoplasia may lead overtreatment, underscores challenge distinguishing indolent lesions from potentially aggressive malignancies LCS, highlighting need ongoing refinement protocols mitigate this risk.
