Utilizing a domain-specific large language model for LI-RADS v2018 categorization of free-text MRI reports: a feasibility study.

Objective: To develop a domain-specific large language model (LLM) for LI-RADS v2018 categorization of hepatic observations based on free-text descriptions extracted from MRI reports.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study included 291 small liver observations, divided into training (n = 141), validation (n = 30), and test (n = 120) datasets. Of these, 120 were fictitious, and 171 were extracted from 175 MRI reports from a single institution.

International expert guidance for defining and monitoring small bowel strictures in Crohn's disease on intestinal ultrasound: a consensus statement.

Background: Diagnostic imaging using CT enterography, magnetic resonance enterography, and intestinal ultrasound are important tools in evaluating stricturing Crohn's disease. Definitions of strictures have been developed for CT enterography and magnetic resonance enterography. However, expert recommendations for definitions and treatment response of strictures on intestinal ultrasound are not available.

Challenges in Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Review of Current Controversies.

Liver transplantation (LT) remains one of the most effective treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and significantly enhances patient survival. However, the application of LT for HCC faces challenges owing to advancements in cancer-specific treatment modalities and the increased burden of patients' comorbidities. This narrative review explores current controversies and advancements in LT for HCC.

Early Biological Therapy Within 12 Months of Diagnosis Leads to Higher Transmural Healing Rates in Crohn's Disease.

Background & Aims: Transmural healing (TH) is emerging as a potential Crohn's disease (CD) treatment target. Early biological treatment seems to be associated with improved disease outcomes, but its impact on TH remains unclear. We aimed to assess the impact of early biological treatment initiation on TH and its influence on CD prognosis.
