Abstract

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Enhanced computed tomography (CT) is the primary method for focal liver lesion diagnosis. We aimed to use automated machine learning (AutoML) algorithms to differentiate between benign and malignant focal liver lesions on the basis of radiomics from unenhanced CT images.
