Abstract

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common pathological type of thyroid cancer, and its accurate diagnosis is crucial for treatment planning and prognostic evaluation. In recent years, rapid advancements in high-throughput sequencing, radiomics, and artificial intelligence have facilitated a shift in PTC diagnosis from traditional empirical judgment toward multidimensional data-driven precision approaches. This article systematically reviews recent progress in diagnostic models for PTC, with a focus on methodologies constructed using ultrasound imaging features, molecular biomarkers, and multimodal data integration. The technical strengths, clinical applicability, and current limitations of various models are analyzed. Furthermore, this review discusses future directions in PTC diagnostic model research, aiming to provide valuable insights for clinical diagnosis and related studies.
