Radiomics features were extracted from intratumoral and four peritumoral regions with widths of 0.5\u20132.0\u00a0mm on tri-modality ultrasound (US) images. Boruta algorithm and XGBoost classifier were used for features selection and radiomics signature (RS) construction, respectively. A hybrid model combining the optimal RS with the highest AUC and clinical characteristics as well as a clinical model were built via multivariate logistic regression analysis. The performance of the established models was evaluated by discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. DeLong\u2019s test was used for performance comparison.
