Use of High-Resolution Computed Tomography and Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in the Management of Stage IA Adenocarcinoma

Preoperative determination of malignant behavior is critical in choosing suitable therapeutic strategies such as sublobar resection for patients with small lung cancers. The aim of present review was to evaluate high-resolution computed tomography and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography as tools for management of clinical stage IA adenocarcinoma.
