Clinical occult lymph node metastasis (cOLNM) means that the lymph node is negatively diagnosed by preoperative computed tomography (CT), but has been proven to be positive by postoperative pathology. The aim of this study was to establish and validate a nomogram based on radiomics features for the preoperative prediction of cOLNM in early-stage solid lung adenocarcinoma patients.
