description Objective: This study aims to analyze the quantitative parameters and morphological indices of three-dimensional (3D) visualization to differentiate lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma (LPA) from non-LPA subtypes, which include acinar predominant adenocarcinoma (APA), papillary predominant adenocarcinoma (PPA), micropapillary predominant adenocarcinoma (MPA), and solid predominant adenocarcinoma (SPA). Methods: A group of 178 individuals diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma were chosen and categorized into two groups: the LPA group and the non-LPA group, according to their pathological results. Quantitative parameters and morphological indexes such as 3D volume, solid proportion, and vascular cluster sign were obtained using 3D visualization and reconstruction techniques. Results: Significant differences were observed in the vascular cluster sign, spiculation, shape, air bronchogram, bubble-like lucency, margin, pleural indentation, lobulation, maximum tumor diameter, 3D mean CT value, 3D volume, 3D mass, 3D density, and solid proportion between two groups (P<0.05). The optimal cut-off values for diagnosing non-LPA were a 3D mean CT value of −445.45 HU, a 3D density of 0.56 mg·mm−3, and a solid proportion reaching 27.95 %. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that 3D mean CT value, lobulation, and margin characteristics independently predicted stageⅠinvasive lung adenocarcinoma. The combination of three indicators significantly improved prediction accuracy (AUC=0.881). Conclusion: The utilization of 3D visualization technology in a systematic approach enables the acquisition of 3D quantitative parameters and morphological indicators of thin-slice CT lesions. These efforts significantly contribute to the identification of histopathological subtypes for stageⅠinvasive lung adenocarcinoma. When integrated with pertinent clinical data, this offers essential guidance for developing various surgical techniques and treatment plans.
