Patients with advanced NSCLC underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT and PET/CT-guided synchronous targeted biopsy of primary and distant metastatic tumors. The LIFEx package was used to extract PET and CT radiomic features from primary and metastatic lesions. The radiomic ROI sites of primary and distant metastatic tumors were point-to-point corresponding to the PET/ CT-guided targeted biopsy sites. Whole exon sequencing of primary and distant metastatic tumor samples obtained by PET/CT-guided targeted biopsy was used to get genomic data of primary and distant metastatic tumor. Predictive radiogenomics models were established and validation.
