Abstract
With the popularization of computed tomography (CT) examinations, the incidence of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) has increased significantly. The assessment of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules is crucial to the diagnosis and treatment of lung nodules. Many models for predicting the malignant probability of lung nodules have been developed. These models assess the malignant probability of lung nodules based on the clinical and imaging characteristics of patients. In recent years, malignant probability prediction models have gradually attracted attention in China. Based on the researches on the malignant probability prediction model of pulmonary nodule, focusing on the establishment or verification of the model in the Chinese patient population, this paper reviews the research progress and clinical application of the malignant probability prediction model of pulmonary nodule, and proposes ideas for the future development.
