Abstract：Lung cancer is the most common malignancy with the highest morbidity and mortality in the world. Early diagnosis and
treatment of lung cancer is significant to improve the survival rate of patients. Early lung adenocarcinoma often presents as groundglass
nodule (GGN) in computed tomography (CT) scan, so accurate diagnosis of GGN type lung adenocarcinoma manifesting
is of great value for the later treatment of patients. By converting traditional image into data that can be excavated and analyzed,
radiomics can extract feature data that are difficult to be observed and distinguished by human eyes, and apply it to all aspects
of clinical practice. In this paper, based on relevant literatures, the process of radiomics and its application research progress in
lung adenocarcinoma manifesting as GGN were described, aiming to improve the correct diagnostic rate of lung adenocarcinoma
manifesting as GGN, and provide reference for histopathology, gene prediction and therapeutic efficacy evaluation.
