Segmenting the liver and tumor regions using CT scans is crucial for the subsequent treatment in clinical practice and radiotherapy. Recently, liver and tumor segmentation techniques based on U-Net have gained popularity. However, there are numerous ...
PURPOSE: The purposes of this study were to evaluate the low-contrast detectability of CT images assuming hepatocellular carcinoma and to determine whether dose reduction in abdominal plain CT imaging is possible.
Deep learning-based spectral CT imaging (DL-SCTI) is a novel type of fast kilovolt-switching dual-energy CT equipped with a cascaded deep-learning reconstruction which completes the views missing in the sinogram space and improves the image quality i...
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is the most frequent malignant liver tumor and the third cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. For many years, the golden standard for HCC diagnosis has been the needle biopsy, which is invasive and carries risks. C...
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive techniques have increasingly been adopted for liver resection. This study aimed to compare the perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted liver resection (RALR) with laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) for liver cavernous ...
Liver cancers are the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. In the past decade, breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have inspired development of algorithms in the cancer setting. A growing body of recent s...

Primary liver cancer, with the predominant form as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), remains a worldwide health problem due to its aggressive and lethal nature. Transarterial chemoembolization, the first-line treatment option of unresectable HCC that e...
OBJECTIVES: The accurate prediction of post-hepatectomy early recurrence in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is crucial for decision-making regarding postoperative adjuvant treatment and monitoring. We aimed to explore the feasibility of ...
BACKGROUND: The histological diagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis can be challenging. Decision support models based on deep learning (DL) are increasingly used to aid pathologists, but data on the histology of tissue-invasive parasitic infections are...
BACKGROUND: Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) is a type of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and IVIM model parameters (water molecule diffusion rate D , pseudo-diffusion coefficient D , and tissue perfusion fraction F ) have been widely used in th...
