B-mode ultrasound (BUS) imaging is a routine tool for diagnosis of liver cancers, while contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) provides additional information to BUS on the local tissue vascularization and perfusion to promote diagnostic accuracy. In th...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Several models have recently been developed to predict risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Our aims were to develop and validate an artificial intelligence-assisted prediction model of...
Histopathological growth patterns (HGPs) are independent prognosticators for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Currently, HGPs are determined postoperatively. In this study, we evaluated radiomics for preoperative prediction of HGPs on computed tom...
The intra-voxel incoherent motion model of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (IVIM-DWI) with a series of images with different-values has great potential as a tool for detecting, diagnosing, staging, and monitoring disease progression or ...

The presence of necrosis is associated with tumor progression and patient outcomes in many cancers, but existing analyses rarely adopt quantitative methods because the manual quantification of histopathological features is too expensive. We aim to ac...
Cryo-imaging sections and images a whole mouse and provides ~ 120-GBytes of microscopic 3D color anatomy and fluorescence images, making fully manual analysis of metastases an onerous task. A convolutional neural network (CNN)-based metastases segmen...
BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the world owing to limitations in its prognosis. The current prognosis approaches include radiological examination and detection of serum biomarkers, however, ...
