Foundation model-guided multi-view semi-supervised CT segmentation of liver tumors in resource-constrained settings
Abdominal Imaging 9 min.
The liver serves as the link between metabolic homeostasis and digestive function, and is an extremely important organ in human physiology. Its critical role is profoundly challenged by hepatic malignancies, which constitute a major source of cancer-related morbidity and mortality globally, posing a...
Preoperative stratification of Ki-67 proliferation index in intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma via tumor-halo radiomic phenotyping on biparametric MRI: a multicenter diagnostic model
Abdominal Imaging 5 min.
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a highly malignant liver tumor with a poor prognosis, which originates from the epithelial cells of the intrahepatic bile ducts [1, 2]. Intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (IMCC) is the most common subtype of ICC, accounting for approximately 65% of cases....
Diagnostic value of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI versus contrast-enhanced CT for detecting liver metastasis in colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Abdominal Imaging 5 min.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed malignancy worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths [1]. Approximately 25–30% of CRC patients develop liver metastases, significantly worsening their prognosis [2, 3]. Recent advancements in targeted therapies and...
Successful conversion of percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage to endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy combined with antegrade stenting for a malignant distal biliary obstruction due to invasive intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma: a case report
Abdominal Imaging 2 min.
Although endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the first-line treatment for malignant distal biliary obstruction, when ERCP cannot be successful, endoscopic ultrasound-guided rendezvous and endoscopic ultrasound-guided antegrade stenting can be performed as salvage [1, 2, 3–4]....
