Abstract

BACKGROUND: Conservative treatment remains a viable option for selected patients with ectopic pregnancy (EP), but failure may lead to rupture and serious complications. Currently, serum β-hCG is the main predictor for treatment outcomes, yet its accuracy is limited. This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive model that integrates radiomic features derived from super-resolution (SR) ultrasound images with clinical biomarkers to improve risk stratification.
