Correlation between Imaging Features and Pathological Stages of Primary Lung Tumors Based on Nanocontrast Agents

As one of the conventional methods of lung cancer detection, computed tomography (CT) usually requires the use of contrast agents to enhance the imaging effect. Conventional iodine contrast agents have poor signal-to-noise ratio and are prone to adverse reactions. It is necessary to find more effect...
