Pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor (PIP) is an inflammatory proliferative tumor-like lesion that frequently exhibits hypermetabolism on 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging (PET/CT) and is readily misdiagnosed as a malignant tumor. The purpose of this study was to identify PIP by combining PET/computed tomography metabolic and blood test characteristics with machine learning.
