AI enhanced diagnostic accuracy and workload reduction in hepatocellular carcinoma screening

Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ultrasound screening encounters challenges related to accuracy and the workload of radiologists. This retrospective, multicenter study assessed four artificial intelligence (AI) enhanced strategies using 21,934 liver ultrasound images from 11,960 patients to i...
