Abstract
BACKGROUND: Accurate preoperative identification of the microvascular invasion (MVI) can relieve the pressure from personalized treatment adaptation and improve the poor prognosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to develop and validate a novel multimodal deep learning (DL) model for predicting MVI based on multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT).
