Diagnostic Performance of LI-RADS for MRI and CT Detection of HCC: A Systematic Review and Diagnostic Meta-analysis

ConclusionsLI-RADS shows high diagnostic accuracy in diagnosing of HCC with a pooled sensitivity of 0.86 and specificity of 0.85, and specificity is higher for LR-5 or LR ≥ 5. However, further prospective studies of LI-RADS are needed to elucidate its value for diagnosing of small HCCs (≤20 mm).
