Analysis of CT features and quantitative texture analysis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma: a correlation with EGFR mutations and survival rates

Highlights: • Negative association between EGFR mutation and emphysema and locoregional infiltration. • Positive association was observed between EGFR mutation and necrosis and air-bronchogram. • Lung adenocarcinoma EGFR-phenotype may be predicted from CT and QTA. To investigate the correlation between conventional computed tomography (CT) features, quantitative texture analysis (QTA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, and survival rates in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.
