Fig. 6From: Ultrasound-based radiomics analysis for preoperative prediction of central and lateral cervical lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma: a multi-institutional studyDecision curve analysis for each model in predicting a central compartment and b lateral compartment LNM in PTC patients. The y-axis represents the net benefit, which was calculated by summing the benefits (true positives) and subtracting the harms (false positives), and weighing the relative harm of false-positive and false-negative results. According to threshold probability obtained, the radiomics nomograms have the greatest net benefit compared with other models or simple strategies such as all-treat and non-treat scheme do.
