Development and internal validation of prediction model for rebleeding within one year after endoscopic treatment of cirrhotic varices: consideration from organ-based CT radiomics signature.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rebleeding after endoscopic treatment for esophagogastric varices (EGVs) in cirrhotic patients remains a significant clinical challenge, with high mortality rates and limited predictive tools. Current methods, relying on clinical indicators, often lack precision and fail to provide personalized risk assessments. This study aims to develop and validate a novel, non-invasive prediction model based on CT radiomics to predict rebleeding risk within one year of treatment, integrating radiomic features from key organs and clinical data.

Methods

123 patients were enrolled and divided into rebleeding (n = 44) and non-bleeding group (n = 79) within 1 year after endoscopic treatment of EGVs. The liver, spleen, and the lower part of the esophagus were segmented and the extra
