Predicting Invasiveness of Lung Adenocarcinoma from Chest CT with Few-shot Vision-Language Ternary Classification Model
Preoperative differentiation of preinvasive lesions, minimally invasive adenocarcinomas, and invasive adenocarcinomas within pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs) is challenging. Herein, this study investigated the potential of vision-language models to assist radiologists in noninvasively predicting pGGN…
