Development of a radiomics nomogram based on the 2D and 3D CT features to predict the survival of non-small cell lung cancer patients.

• We found both 2D and 3D radiomics signature have favorable prognosis, but 3D signature had a better performance. • The radiomics signature generated from the combined 2D and 3D features had a better predictive performance than those from 2D or 3D features. • Integrating the optimal radiomics signature with clinical predictors significantly improved the predictive power in patients' survival compared with clinical TNM staging alone.
