Core Tip Artificial intelligence (AI) for image-guided hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis improves sensitivity to small lesions, enables standardized quantitative readouts, and reduces reporting time, thereby complementing conventional radiology. Built on diverse imaging datasets and evolving model designs, AI has advanced across detection, segmentation, characterization, and response assessment, with early clinical uptake. Outstanding obstacles-cross-institution generalization and clinically meaningful explainability-must be resolved to achieve scalable, trustworthy deployment.
