| Core Tip |
Radiologic response is widely used to assess treatment efficacy in hepatocellular carcinoma after conversion therapy, yet its correlation with pathological response remains uncertain. In this study, radiologic partial response assessed by both Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1 and modified RECIST showed poor concordance with pathologic complete response (pCR). Although all patients achieving pCR were classified as responders by modified RECIST, most radiologic responders still had residual viable tumor. These findings underscore the limitations of imaging-based response assessment and support the integration of additional biomarkers to improve preoperative evaluation and treatment planning. |
