Liver fibrosis staging is clinically important for liver disease progression prediction. As the portal tract fibrotic quantity and size in a liver biopsy correlate with the fibrosis stage, an accurate analysis of portal tract regions is clinically cr...
PURPOSE: To investigate whether the iodine density of liver parenchyma in the equilibrium phase and extracellular volume fraction (ECV) measured by deep learning-based spectral computed tomography (CT) can enable noninvasive liver fibrosis staging.

Liver fibrosis is a common liver disease that seriously endangers human health. Liver biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing liver fibrosis, but its clinical use is limited due to its invasive nature. Ultrasound image examination is a widely used...
OBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence (AI) has begun to play a pivotal role in hepatic imaging. This systematic scoping review summarizes the latest progress of AI in evaluating hepatic diseases based on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (...
AIM: To investigate the performance of a generative adversarial network (GAN) model for staging liver fibrosis and its radiomics-based nomogram for predicting cirrhosis.
Although CT and MRI are standard procedures in cirrhosis diagnosis, differentiation of etiology based on imaging is not established. This proof-of-concept study explores the potential of deep learning (DL) to support imaging-based differentiation of ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Chronic hepatitis B virus (CHB) infection remains a major global health burden and the non-invasive and accurate diagnosis of significant liver fibrosis (≥ F2) in CHB patients is clinically very important. This study aimed to ass...
Neurons refer to nerve cells. Each neuron is connected with thousands of other neurons to form a corresponding functional area and carry out complex communication with other functional areas. Its importance to the human body is self-evident. There ar...
