    Non-mass breast carcinoma (NMBC) often overlaps sonographically with mastitis, complicating accurate diagnosis and treatment.

  • 2

    The study analyzed data from 139 patients, constructing radiomics models from ultrasound images to differentiate NMBC from mastitis.

  • 3

    The fusion model combining transverse and longitudinal images showed superior performance in the training cohort but limited generalizability in validation.

  • 4

    The combined clinical–radiomics model outperformed both radiomics and clinical variable-based models in the validation cohort.

  • 5

    Biplanar ultrasound imaging-based radiomics models demonstrate potential for distinguishing NMBC from mastitis, enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
