Core Tip	DynaCT has revolutionized hepatolithiasis management by offering superior imaging and procedural precisions. This cutting-edge technology enhances the visualization of complex biliary and vascular anatomy, enabling accurate lesion detection and targeted interventions, particularly in combination with therapies such as transarterial chemoembolization and microwave ablation. Compared with traditional imaging, DynaCT demonstrates greater sensitivity and safety while minimizing complications. Despite challenges, such as high costs and training demands, its potential to optimize outcomes in hepatobiliary and other interventional fields is undeniable. This editorial underscores DynaCT’s transformative impact and explores future directions to maximize its clinical utility.
