Abstract

BACKGROUND: Radiomics has emerged as a promising approach for diagnosing, treating, and evaluating the prognosis of various diseases in recent years. Some investigators have utilized radiomics to create preoperative diagnostic models for tumor deposits (TDs) and perineural invasion (PNI) in rectal cancer (RC). However, there is currently a lack of comprehensive, evidence-based support for the diagnostic performance of these models. Thus, the accuracy of radiomic models was assessed in diagnosing preoperative RC TDs and PNI in this study.
