Abstract
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to integrate various radiological and clinical pathological data to identify effective predictors of contralateral central lymph node metastasis (CCLNM) in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and to establish a clinically applicable model to guide the extent of surgery.
