Variables assessed included CT imaging features along with relevant clinical data. Statistically significant variables were identified through multivariable logistic regression analysis, and a predictive nomogram was developed and internally validated based on these factors.  \nResults Multivariable analysis identified the following independent risk factors: the distance from the distal end of the dilated pancreatic duct to the medial wall of the papilla (DPDP) (odds ratio [OR] 8. 76, P \u003C 0. 05), the distance from the distal end of the dilated bile duct to the medial wall of the papilla (DBDP) (OR 31 . 83, P \u003C 0. 05), papillary enlargement (OR 0 . 03, P \u003C 0. 05), and visibility of pancreatic and/or bile ducts between the tumor and the papilla (VPBD) (OR 3 . 97, P \u003C 0. 05) . A nomogram was constructed based on these four significant features. In both the development and validation cohorts, the nomogram demonstrated robust predictive performance, with areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs) of 0.84 (95% CI, 0 .77–0. 91) and 0.81 (95% CI, 0 .67–0. 96), respectively. Conclusions This study underscores the value of CT imaging features in distinguishing pancreatic cancer from periampullary non-pancreatic cancers. The identification of key imaging markers with significant diagnostic value facilitated the development and validation of a nomogram that integrates these features, providing a more reliable tool for clinical decision-making.  \nKeywords Pancreatic cancer, Periampullary cancer, Computed tomography, Risk factors, Nomogram  \n†Xiaohuan Zhang and Junqing Wang are coefirst authors.  \n*Correspondence: Lei Zhang [leon3183@163.com](leon3183@163.com)  \n1Department of Radiology, The Affiliated Wuxi No.2 People’s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Wuxi 214002, China  \n2Department of Radiology, Wuxi Second People’s Hospital, Jiangnan University Medical Center, Wuxi, China  \n© The Author(s) 2025.
