Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new class of endogenous non-coding RNAs with covalent closed loop structure. Researchers have revealed that circRNAs play an important role in human diseases. As experimental identification of interactions between circR...
BACKGROUND: The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the main causes of viral hepatitis and liver cancer. HBV integration is one of the key steps in the virus-promoted malignant transformation.

PURPOSE: Liver cancer is one of the most common types of cancers in Asia with a high mortality rate. A common method for liver cancer diagnosis is the manual examination of histopathology images. Due to its laborious nature, we focus on alternate dee...
Biological processes are inherently continuous, and the chance of phenotypic discovery is significantly restricted by discretising them. Using multi-parametric active regression we introduce the Regression Plane (RP), a user-friendly discovery tool e...
OBJECTIVES: To develop a convolutional neural network system to jointly segment and classify a hepatic lesion selected by user clicks in ultrasound images.
Early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is crucial for clinical management. Current studies have reported large HCC detections using automatic algorithms, but there is a lack of research on automatic detection of small HCCs (sHCCs). This st...

PURPOSE: Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a critical determinant of the early recurrence and poor prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Prediction of MVI status is clinically significant for the decision of treatment strategies an...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and evaluate a deep learning-based model capable of detecting primary hepatic malignancies in multiphase CT images of patients at high risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
BACKGROUND: The accurate prediction of post-hepatectomy early recurrence (PHER) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is vital in determining postoperative adjuvant treatment and monitoring. This study aimed to develop and validate an artificial neural n...
