Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules, specifically in the field of ultrasound image analysis. It focuses on the accuracy and clinical feasibility of the AI system based on the Vision-LSTM model in the diagnosis of TI-RADS category 4b thyroid nodules.

- Accuracy of diagnostic models
- timeFrame
- Immediately evaluated after the diagnostic model was built
- description
- The study collected ultrasound imaging data from 401 cases of TI-RADS 4b thyroid nodules at our hospital and used this data to train and validate the Vision-LSTM model. The diagnostic results of the AI model were compared with those of junior and senior clinicians to evaluate its performance in terms of diagnostic accuracy and stability; model performance was quantified using metrics such as the area under the curve (AUC) and the precision-recall curve (PR curve).
