Core Tip We constructed a noninvasive predictive model using machine learning for esophagogastric varices in hepatitis B patients. An Extreme gradient boosting model, based on ultrasound and serological markers, achieved high accuracy (area under the curve = 0.96) in predicting high-risk esophagogastric varices. Key predictive variables included albumin, prothrombin time, portal vein flow velocity and spleen stiffness. A web-based application was developed to facilitate clinical use, offering real-time risk assessment. This model provides a promising tool for targeted screening, potentially reducing the need for costly and risky endoscopic procedures in low-risk individuals.
