Diagnosis of Hepatic Nodules in Patients at Risk for Q1 Hepatocellular Carcinoma: LI-RADS Probability Versus Certainty
Unequivocal diagnosis with avoidance of false- positive results is very relevant in patients with
liver disease in whom an imaging technique detects a nodule that raises the potential emergence of hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC). Although biopsy confirmation is standard in most cancers, several studies have shown that reliable
HCC diagnosis may be established by imaging techniques in patients with chronic liver disease (namely, cirrhosis).1,2
