Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a CT-based radiomics model to predict lymph node metastasis in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) before surgery.
  • Researchers enrolled 214 pCCA patients and used various algorithms to analyze radiomics signatures and classify lymph nodes, achieving high diagnostic efficiency with AUC values indicating strong predictive power.
  • The developed model demonstrated that high-risk patients had significantly shorter overall survival compared to low-risk patients, suggesting its potential for improving treatment personalization and risk assessment.*

Objective: To determine whether adding diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to gadoxetic acid-enhanced 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can improve the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), particularly for small lesions (≤2 cm) in patients with liver cirrhosis.

Methods: Data of patients diagnosed with focal liver lesions who had undergone gadoxetic acid-enhanced 3.
