Core Tip |
Imaging technologies play a crucial role in the preoperative assessment of the tumor microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma. By evaluating key features such as vascularity, immune infiltration, and stromal components, these techniques provide valuable insights into tumor biology. A comprehensive assessment of the tumor microenvironment allows for the development of personalized treatment strategies, optimizing therapeutic outcomes for liver cancer patients. Advanced imaging modalities, including magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and positron emission tomography, help predict tumor behavior and response to treatment, ultimately contributing to more precise and effective clinical decision-making. |
