Core Tip This manuscript addresses a method of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prediction by using a new technique that evaluates hepatic fibrosis using a noninvasive method (reported recently). This is the first reported study to consider a possible substitute for liver biopsy by using an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method (a widespread method in public medical services) for evaluating the risk of occurrence. We propose that this method will become one of the most popular and precise noninvasive methods to predict the occurrence of HCC, and the combination of this MRI method and Fib-4 index may provide a better predictive method of HCC progression.
