INTRODUCTION: Microvascular invasion (MVI) is the main risk factor for overall mortality and recurrence after surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).The aim was to train machine-learning models to predict MVI on preoperative CT scan.
OBJECTIVE: The accuracy of deep learning models for many disease prediction problems is affected by time-varying covariates, rare incidence, covariate imbalance and delayed diagnosis when using structured electronic health records data. The situation...
PURPOSE: To evaluated the impact of a deep learning (DL)-based image reconstruction on multi-arterial-phase magnetic resonance imaging (MA-MRI) for small hypervascular hepatic masses in patients who underwent gadoxetic acid-enhanced liver MRI.
BACKGROUND: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is considered as an efficient tool for focal liver lesion characterization, given it allows real-time scanning and provides dynamic tissue perfusion information. An accurate diagnosis of liver lesions w...

This study aims to investigate the maximum achievable dose reduction for applying a new deep learning-based reconstruction algorithm, namely the artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR), in computed tomography (CT) for hepatic lesion d...
Although the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)-targeted agents for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is promising, individual response variability exists. Therefore, we developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based model to predi...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether a deep learning (DL) controlled aliasing in parallel imaging results in higher acceleration (CAIPIRINHA)-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) technique can improve image quality, lesion conspicuity,...

BACKGROUND: Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a mainstay treatment for intermediate and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with the potential to enhance patient survival. Preoperative prediction of postoperative response to TAC...
The accuracy of traditional CT image segmentation algorithms is hindered by issues such as low contrast and high noise in the images. While numerous scholars have introduced deep learning-based CT image segmentation algorithms, they still face challe...
. Precise hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) detection is crucial for clinical management. While studies focus on computed tomography-based automatic algorithms, there is a rareness of research on automatic detection based on dynamic contrast enhanced (D...
