TL;DR
Although statistical superiority of the full-fusion model over the clinical baseline or the other fusion models was not established, its potential utility lies in providing an interpretable, probability-based multimodal risk estimate for case-level preoperative assessment rather than a stand-alone treatment decision.
DL-based segmentation built upon SAM3 achieves satisfactory outcomes in automatic PTMC delineation from ultrasound images and the DLR model noninvasively predicts CLNM, supporting clinical decision-making for PTMC.

Background Preoperative differentiation of thyroid follicular tumors remains challenging because cytology has a limited ability to assess capsular and vascular invasion. This study aimed to develop a nomogram integrating multimodal ultrasound and clinical features to predict the risk of malignancy in follicular thyroid...

A minimal-feature radiomics model derived exclusively from ADC images showed promising diagnostic performance for differentiating malignant from benign prostate lesions, and may provide a practical, reproducible, and resource-efficient strategy for supporting prostate cancer diagnosis.

Abstract Background Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI‐RADS) 4a nodules represent a diagnostic dilemma, with a malignancy rate ranging from 2% to 10%. The majority of these nodules prove benign after biopsy, leading to unnecessary invasive procedures, patient anxiety, and healthcare costs. Current clinical pr...

Background For patients with C-TIRADS 3 or 4 nodules who have undergone fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), subsequent management decisions remain challenging, especially when cytological results are discordant with imaging findings or indeterminate. We built a nomogram incorporating BRAF V600E, serum biomarkers, a...
