description Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the performance of traditional-deep learning combination model based on Doppler ultrasound for diagnosing malignant complex cystic and solid breast nodules. A conventional statistical prediction model based on the ultrasound features and basic clinical information was established. A deep learning prediction model was used to train the training group images and derive the deep learning prediction model. The two models were validated, and their accuracy rates were compared using the data and images of the test group, respectively. A logistic regression method was used to combine the two models to derive a combination diagnostic model and validate it in the test group. The diagnostic performance of each model was represented by the receiver operating characteristic curve and the area under the curve. In the test cohort, the diagnostic efficacy of the deep learning model was better than traditional statistical model, and the combined diagnostic model was better and outperformed the other two models (combination model vs traditional statistical model: AUC: 0.95 > 0.70, P = 0.001; combination model vs deep learning model: AUC: 0.95 > 0.87, P = 0.04). A combination model based on deep learning and ultrasound features has good diagnostic value.
