Key Words Drug-induced liver injury; Pyrrolizidine alkaloid; Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome; Deep learning; Computed tomography model
Core Tip Drug-induced liver injury remains challenging due to its vague presentation and reliance on exclusion-based techniques. This complexity is particularly evident in cases of pyrrolizidine alkaloid-induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, which often require invasive treatments and expert imaging interpretation. Recent advancements in deep learning applied to computed tomography are changing the diagnostic landscape by identifying subtle, diffuse parenchymal abnormalities that might be missed using standard methods. Artificial intelligence can improve clinician performance, enhance diagnostic consistency, and reduce interpretation times, as demonstrated by the validated model discussed here. These integrated technologies could lead to more timely and informed clinical decision-making, improving the early identification of complex drug-induced liver injury characteristics.
