OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the potential of deep learning (DL)-assisted automated three-dimensional quantitative tumor burden at MRI to predict postoperative early recurrence (ER) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
BACKGROUND: Lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitors and interventional (LPI) therapy have demonstrated promising treatment effects in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, biomarkers for predicting the response to LPI therapy remain to be fur...

BACKGROUND: Overall Survival (OS) and Progression-Free Survival (PFS) analyses are crucial metrics for evaluating the efficacy and impact of treatment. This study evaluated the role of clinical biomarkers and dosimetry parameters on survival outcomes...
IMPORTANCE: Intra-arterial therapies(IATs) are promising options for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Stratifying the prognostic risk before administering IAT is important for clinical decision-making and for designing future clinical tria...
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) represent the standard of therapy for non-operative hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), while prediction of long term treatment outcomes is a complex and multifactorial task. In this study, we present a novel machin...
This study aimed to establish a machine learning (ML) model for predicting hepatic metastasis in esophageal cancer. We retrospectively analyzed patients with esophageal cancer recorded in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) databas...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis mainly relies on its pathognomonic radiological profile, obviating the need for biopsy. The project of incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in HCC aims to improve the perfo...
BACKGROUND: Treatment with atezolizumab and bevacizumab has become standard of care for advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) but carries an increased gastrointestinal bleeding risk. Therefore, patients are often required to undergo es...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on vascular depiction, tumor enhancement, and image quality of computed tomography hepatic arteriography (CTHA) images acquired during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TAC...
Liver resection is one of the best treatments for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but post-resection recurrence is frequent. Biotherapies have emerged as an efficient adjuvant treatment, making the identification of patients at high risk of rec...
