Preliminary study on diagnosis of gallbladder neoplastic polyps based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound and grey scale ultrasound radiomics

Neoplastic gallbladder polyps (GPs), including adenomas and adenocarcinomas, are considered absolute indications for surgery; however, the distinction of neoplastic from non-neoplastic GPs on imaging is often challenging. This study thereby aimed to develop a CEUS radiomics nomogram, and evaluate the role of a combined grey-scale ultrasound and CEUS model for the prediction and diagnosis of neoplastic GPs.
