RESUMEN
Microvascular invasion of HCC is an important factor affecting postoperative recurrence and prognosis of patients. Preoperative diagnosis of MVI is greatly significant to improve the prognosis of HCC. Currently, the diagnosis of MVI is mainly based on the histopathological examination after surgery, which is difficult to meet the requirement of preoperative diagnosis. Also, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MVI diagnosis based on a single imaging feature are low. In this paper, a robust, high-precision cross-modality unified framework for clinical diagnosis is proposed for the prediction of microvascular invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma. It can effectively extract, fuse and locate multi-phase MR Images and clinical data, enrich the semantic context, and comprehensively improve the prediction indicators in different hospitals. The state-of-the-art performance of the approach was validated on a dataset of HCC patients with confirmed pathological types. Moreover, CMIR provides a possible solution for related multimodality tasks in the medical field.
