Brief Summary:
This study compares the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of radiologists, thoracic surgeons and a predictive model (PKUM model) to discriminate malignancy from benign nodules in patients with multiple pulmonary nodules.

Condition or disease
Multiple Pulmonary Nodules

Detailed Description:
It is clinically difficult to diagnose and manage patients with multiple pulmonary nodules (MPNs). We have developed a web-based mathematic model (PKUM model) by using a multi-centric database from three institutions (Peking University People's Hospital, Haidian Section of Peking University Third Hospital, People's Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University) to predict the probability of a nodule to be malignant in patients with MPNs. This prospectively observational study will recruit patients with MPNs between January 2019 and March 2019, allowing radiologists, surgeons, and a predictive model (PKUM model) to discriminate malignancy from benign nodules, and compare their sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Performance of PKUM model [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of PKUM model in predicting the probability of a nodule to be malignant in patients with multiple pulmonary nodules.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Comparison between PKUM model and clinicians [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Comparison of sensitivity and specificity of radiologists, thoracic surgeons, and PKUM model in predicting the probability of a nodule to be malignant in patients with multiple pulmonary nodules.

  2. Performance of PKUM model in equivocal nodules which is difficult to judge by clinicians [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Sensitivity and specificity of PKUM model in predicting malignant probability of equivocal nodules judged by radiologists and thoracic surgeons.
