Core Tip Contrast-enhanced ultrasound liver imaging reporting and data system (CEUS LI-RADS) is used for the diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs) in adult patients at high risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. CEUS has recently been approved to be used in characterization of FLLs in children. Our study investigated the diagnostic value of CEUS LI-RADS in association with serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in differentiating malignant from benign FLLs in pediatric patients. Our study demonstrated that CEUS LI-RADS combined with AFP may be a powerful diagnostic tool for pediatric patients. LR-4 with elevated AFP, LR-5 or LR-M lesions are highly indicative of malignant tumors.
