Construction of nomogram model based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound parameters to predict the degree of pathological differentiation of hepatocellular carcinoma by Shu-Min Lian, Hong-Jing Cheng, Hong-Jing Li, Hui Wang

“…The prediction model was constructed by logistic regression in the training set, and the final model included three variables: mTTI, FT, and maximum diameter of a single lesion, resulting in the equation was Y=−2.360+1.674X1+1.019X2+0.753X3(2)+1.570X3(3).The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the training set was 0.831, with a sensitivity of 82.0% and a specificity of 79.5%; the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the testing set was 0.811, with a sensitivity of 81.0% and a specificity of 70.0%.ConclusionThe regression model constructed by combining multiple parameters can effectively improve the diagnostic performance of CEUS in predicting the pathological differentiation grade of HCC, thus providing a clinical basis and empirical support for the use of CEUS as a diagnostic imaging method for this disease.…”
