    A fusion model combining carotid ultrasound radiomics and semantic analysis significantly improves aortic dissection detection compared to individual models.

  • 2

    The study included 209 participants, with a training and test cohort split of 70% to 30%, and an external validation set of 39 participants.

  • 3

    The fusion model achieved an AUC of 0.94 in the training set and 0.91 in the external validation set, outperforming both the semantic and radiomic models.

  • 4

    Statistical analysis indicated significant differences in performance between the fusion model and the other models, with p < 0.05.

  • 5

    The findings support the potential for future multicenter studies to evaluate the clinical utility of the fusion model in real-world settings.
