Multiparametric MRI-based intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics for predicting the pathological differentiation of hepatocellular carcinoma

ConclusionsOur study highlights the potential of a multiparametric MRI-based radiomic model that integrates intratumoral and peritumoral features as a tool for predicting HCC differentiation.Critical relevance statementBoth clinical and multiparametric MRI-based radiomic models, particularly the intratumoral radiomic model, are non-invasive tools for predicting HCC differentiation. Importantly, the IntraPeri fusion model exhibited remarkable predictiveness for individualized HCC differentiation.Key points• Both the intratumoral radiomics model and clinical features were useful for predicting HCC differentiation.• The Peri_10mm radiomics model demonstrated better diagnostic ability than other peritumoral region-based models.• The IntraPeri radiomics fusion model outperformed the other models for predicting HCC differentiation.Graphical Abstract
