Incorporation of CEUS and SWE Parameters into a Multivariate Logistic Regression Model for the Differential Diagnosis of Benign and Malignant TI-RADS4 Thyroid Nodules
Abstract:Purpose: To investigate the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) quantitative analysis parameters combined with shear wave elastography (SWE) quantitative parameters in the differentiation of benign and malignant ACR TI-RADS category 4 thyroid nodules and to provide a more effective reference for clinical work.
Methods: We analyzed 187 category 4 nodules, including 132 nodules in the development cohort and 55 nodules in the validation cohort, divided the development cohort into benign and ma… Show more
