Core Tip This study presents a multimodal model that integrates pathological slide staining with clinical features to predict the probability of histological reversal following standard antiviral therapy in patients with advanced chronic hepatitis B-related fibrosis. The model demonstrates robust predictive accuracy in both internal validation and external test sets. This methodology supports patient risk stratification and informs the development of personalized, optimized treatment strategies.
