The study aims to investigate the value of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics and clinical-radiological features for predicting spread through air spaces (STAS) in patients with clinical stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A total of 336 NSCLC patients from our hospital were randomly divided into the training cohort (n = 236) and the internal validation cohort (n = 100) at a ratio of 7:3, and 69 patients from the other two external hospitals were collected as the external validation cohort. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to select clinical-radiological features and construct a clinical model. The GTV, PTV5, PTV10, PTV15, PTV20, GPTV5, GPTV10, GPTV15, and GPTV20 models were constructed based on intratumoral and peritumoral (5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm) radiomics features. Additionally, the radscore of the optimal radiomics model and clinical-radiological predictors were used to construct a combined model and plot a nomogram. Lastly, the ROC curve and AUC value were used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the model. Tumor density type (OR = 6.738) and distal ribbon sign (OR = 5.141) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of STAS. The GPTV10 model outperformed the other radiomics models, and its AUC values were 0.887, 0.876, and 0.868 in the three cohorts. The AUC values of the combined model constructed based on GPTV10 radscore and clinical-radiological predictors were 0.901, 0.875, and 0.878. DeLong test results revealed that the com...
