[Preoperative Evaluation of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients With Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Combined With Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma Using Machine Learning and Radiomics-Based Features: A Preliminary Study].

To analyze the radiomic and clinical features extracted from 2D ultrasound images of thyroid tumors in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) combined with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) using machine learning (ML) models, and to explore the diagnostic performance of the method in making preoperative noninvasive identification of cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM).
