description ObjectiveThis study was designed to distinguish benign and malignant thyroid nodules by using deep learning(DL) models based on ultrasound dynamic videos.MethodsUltrasound dynamic videos of 1018 thyroid nodules were retrospectively collected from 657 patients in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2020 to December 2020 for the tests with 5 DL models.ResultsIn the internal test set, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was 0.929(95% CI: 0.888,0.970) for the best-performing model LSTM Two radiologists interpreted the dynamic video with AUROC values of 0.760 (95% CI: 0.653, 0.867) and 0.815 (95% CI: 0.778, 0.853). In the external test set, the best-performing DL model had AUROC values of 0.896(95% CI: 0.847,0.945), and two ultrasound radiologist had AUROC values of 0.754 (95% CI: 0.649,0.850) and 0.833 (95% CI: 0.797,0.869).ConclusionThis study demonstrates that the DL model based on ultrasound dynamic videos performs better than the ultrasound radiologists in distinguishing thyroid nodules.
