Popis: Abstract Background Microsatellite instability (MSI) predetermines responses to adjuvant 5‐fluorouracil and immunotherapy in rectal cancer and serves as a prognostic biomarker for clinical outcomes. Our objective was to develop and validate a deep learning model that could preoperatively predict the MSI status of rectal cancer based on magnetic resonance images. Methods This single‐center retrospective study included 491 rectal cancer patients with pathologically proven microsatellite status. Patients were randomly divided into the training/validation cohort (n = 395) and the testing cohort (n = 96). A clinical model using logistic regression was constructed to discriminate MSI status using only clinical factors. Based on a modified MobileNetV2 architecture, deep learning models were tested for the predictive ability of MSI status from magnetic resonance images, with or without integrating clinical factors. Results The clinical model correctly classified 37.5% of MSI status in the testing cohort, with an AUC value of 0.573 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.468 ~ 0.674). The pure imaging‐based model and the combined model correctly classified 75.0% and 85.4% of MSI status in the testing cohort, with AUC values of 0.820 (95% CI, 0.718 ~ 0.884) and 0.868 (95% CI, 0.784 ~ 0.929), respectively. Both deep learning models performed better than the clinical model (p
