Many evidences have confirmed that chromatin regulator factors (CRs) are involved in the progression of cancer, but its potential mechanism of affecting hepatitis B related hepatocellular carcinoma still needs to be studied. Our study detected the CR...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of a vendor-specific deep learning reconstruction algorithm (DLRA) in enhancing image quality and focal lesion detection using three-dimensional T1-weighted gradient-echo images in gadoxetic acid-enhanced liver magne...
Primary liver cancer arises either from hepatocytic or biliary lineage cells, giving rise to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICCA). Combined hepatocellular- cholangiocarcinomas (cHCC-CCA) exhibit equivocal or mixed ...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To explore both an intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) model based on habitat analysis and a deep learning (DL) model based on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CEMRI) and validate its efficiency for predicting micr...
PURPOSE: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) shows different enhancement patterns depending on the time after administration of the contrast agent. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of liver nodule characterization usin...
OBJECTIVES: The current study developed an ultrasound-based deep learning model to make preoperative differentiation among hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), and combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-ICC...

BACKGROUND: The location and morphology of the liver are significantly affected by respiratory motion. Therefore, delineating the gross target volume (GTV) based on 4D medical images is more accurate than regular 3D-CT with contrast. However, the 4D ...

BACKGROUND: The metastatic vascular patterns of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are mainly microvascular invasion (MVI) and vessels encapsulating tumor clusters (VETC). However, most existing VETC-related radiological studies still focus on the predic...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major concern in its management. Accurately predicting the risk of recurrence is crucial for determining appropriate treatment strategies and improving patient outcomes. A ce...
