Core Tip This study developed a machine learning model integrating multimodal magnetic resonance imaging radiomics features and clinical factors to predict lymphovascular invasion in rectal cancer before surgery. Using fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging, feature-level fusion achieved high predictive performance. The combined clinical-radiomics model demonstrated the best accuracy (area under the curve = 0.867), offering a noninvasive, quantitative tool to guide individualized treatment planning.
