Objective: To develop diagnostic models for differentiating gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (g-NEC) and gastric mixed adeno-neuroendocrine carcinoma (g-MANEC) from gastric adenocarcinoma (g-ADC) based on traditional contrast enhanced CT imaging features and radiomics features. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 90 g-(MA)NEC (g-MANEC and g-NEC) patients matched 1:1 by T-stage with 90 g-ADC patients. Traditional CT features were analyzed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression. Tumor segmentation and radiomics features extraction were performed with Slicer and PyRadiomics. Feature selection was conducted through univariable analysis, correlation analysis, LASSO, and multivariable stepwise logistic. The combined model incorporated clinical and radiomics predictors. Diagnostic performance was assessed with ROC curves and DeLong's test. The models' diagnostic efficacy was further validated in subgroup of g-NEC vs. g-ADC and g-MANEC vs. g-ADC cases. Results: Tumor necrosis and lymph node metastasis were independent predictors for differentiating g-(MA)NEC from g-ADC (P < 0.05). The clinical model's AUC was 0.700 (training) and 0.667(validation). Five radiomics features were retained, with the radiomics model showing AUC of 0.809 (training) and 0.802 (validation). The combined model's AUCs were 0.853 (training) and 0.812 (validation), significantly outperforming the clinical model (P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that the combined model exhibited acceptable performance in differentiating g-NEC from g-ADC and g-MANEC from g-ADC, with AUC of 0.887 and 0.823 in the training cohort and 0.852 and 0.762 in the validation cohort. Conclusion: A combined model based on traditional CT imaging and radiomic features provides a non-invasive and effective preoperative diagnostic method for differentiating g-(MA)NEC from g-ADC.
