Key Words Neutrophil-albumin ratio; Multiphase enhanced computed tomography image; Pancreatic cancer; Lymph node metastasis; Predictive model
Core Tip For the first time, we integrated systemic inflammation-nutrition indices [neutrophil-albumin ratio (NAR), platelet-albumin ratio (PAR)] with multi-phase computed tomography (CT) radiomics to predict lymph node metastasis of pancreatic cancer. The resulting four-marker model (NAR > 0.13, PAR > 6.35, hemangioma thrombosis, CT-positive nodes) achieved an area under the curve of 0.830, surpassing conventional imaging and offering a cost-free, pre-operative tool for personalized surgical planning and neoadjuvant selection.
