Pure ground glass opacity (GGO) or part-solid GGO with small solid component (≤5 mm) are likely to be non-invasive or minimally invasive lung cancer. However, those lesions sometimes are diagnosed as invasive adenocarcinoma postoperatively. The aim of this study was to determine the predictors of invasive adenocarcinoma in clinical non- or minimally invasive lung cancer.
