Received July 26, 2025; Accepted September 10, 2025; Published September 30, 2025


Highlights

● A total of 289 patient CT datasets were analyzed, and 15 optimal radiomic features were identified using ANOVA, correlation analysis, and random forest ranking, ensuring high discriminative power and clinical interpretability.

● The proposed model demonstrated excellent performance (Accuracy: 0.98, Area Under the Curve: 0.99) in training set, demonstrating robust learning capacity and the ability to distinguish lesion subtypes from multidimensional radiomic features.

● By leveraging serialized radiomic trends rather than isolated feature analysis, this study provides a new paradigm for early screening and personalized diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma.
