in patients with NSCLC who underwent radical surgery, a %LAAs ≥ 5% and a %LAA lobe ratio > 10% at staging CT are predictors, respectively, of shorter and longer OS. The LAA ratio to the whole lung at staging CT could be a critical factor to predict the overall survival of the NSCLC patients treated by surgery.
