[Research progress of radiomics in hepatocellular carcinoma].

ABSTRACT

Primary liver cancer is a common malignant digestive system tumor, with hepatocellular carcinoma being the most common pathological type. Radiomics significantly boosts the efficiency of predictions by accurately capturing the intrinsically heterogeneous features of tumors that are difficult to discern with the human eye in imaging images. This article outlines the background and concepts of radiomics, introduces its latest research progress in various aspects, such as diagnosis and differential diagnosis, prediction of pathological molecular subtypes, efficacy evaluation, and survival prediction, and further discusses its limitations and prospects in HCC.
