With the rising incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma, there has been increasing use of local-regional therapy (LRT) to downstage or bridge to transplant, for definitive treatment, and for palliation. The CT/MRI Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) Treatment Response Assessment (TRA) algorithm provides guidance for step-by-step tumor assessment after LRT and standardized reporting. Current evidence suggests that the algorithm performs well in the assessment of tumor response to arterial embolic and loco-ablative therapies and fair when assessing response to radiation-based therapies, with limited data to validate the latter. Both evidence-based and expert-based refinements of the algorithm are needed to improve its diagnostic accuracy after varying types of LRT. This review provides an overview of the challenges and limitations of the LI-RADS TRA algorithm version 2017 and discusses the refinements introduced in the updated 2024 LI-RADS algorithm for CT/MRI.
随着肝细胞癌发病率的上升,越来越多地使用局部区域治疗(LRT)进行降期或桥接移植、确定性治疗和姑息治疗。CT/MRI 肝脏成像报告和数据系统(LI-RADS)治疗反应评估(TRA)算法为 LRT 后肿瘤逐步评估和标准化报告提供了指导。目前的证据表明,该算法在评估动脉栓塞和局部消融治疗的肿瘤反应方面表现良好,在评估基于放射的治疗反应方面表现尚可,后者的验证数据有限。需要对该算法进行基于证据和专家的改进,以提高其在不同类型 LRT 后的诊断准确性。本文综述了 LI-RADS TRA 算法 2017 版的挑战和局限性,并讨论了在更新的 2024 版 LI-RADS 算法中为 CT/MRI 引入的改进。
