• Previous history of thoracic surgery;
• A history of severe heart failure, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, and pneumonia within 6 months prior to surgery;
• Concurrent active bacterial or fungal infections;
• Concomitant mental illness;

• ECOG score 0-1;
• Preoperative lung function FEV1 ≥ 1.0L and actual/expected value ≥ 80%;
• No contraindications for surgery;
• Technically, lobectomy or segmental resection combined with lymph node dissection can be performed;
• Preoperative plain scan and enhanced chest CT examination;
• The interval between surgery and chest CT, lung function, and electrocardiogram examinations is less than or equal to 28 days;
