With the rapid development of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), low-dose CT scanning and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), smaller pulmonary nodules can be detected. Subcentimeter ground-glass opacities (GGOs) are extremely difficult to diagnose and accurately locate during VATS and in surgically resected specimens.
