BACKGROUND: Pathological images of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) contain abundant tumor information that can be used to stratify patients. However, the links between histology images and the treatment response have not been fully unveiled.
OBJECTIVES: The potential of medical imaging to non-invasively assess intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) is increasingly being recognized. This study aimed to investigate the value of the ITH-based deep learning model for preoperative prediction of his...

Accurate liver lesion segmentation in ultrasound is a challenging task due to high speckle noise, ambiguous lesion boundaries, and inhomogeneous intensity distribution inside the lesion regions. This work first collected and annotated a dataset for l...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to develop and internally validate an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for predicting the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an exceedingly aggressive form of cancer that often carries a poor prognosis, especially when it is complicated by the presence of microvascular invasion (MVI). Identifying patients at high risk of MVI is crucial for...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) remains a severe complication after hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and accurate preoperative evaluation and predictive measures are urgently needed. We investigated the impact ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) is a major contributor to mortality. We developed a recurrence prediction system for HCC patients before and after LT. Data from patients with HCC who underwent LT were retros...
