Automated fibrosis phenotyping of liver tissue from non-tumor lesions of patients with and without hepatocellular carcinoma after liver transplantation for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

ConclusionIn patients who underwent liver transplantation, fibrotic histological phenotypes in non-tumor lesions appeared to be different between HCC and non-HCC. Phenotypic analysis of collagen in non-tumor lesions might be an effective and automated method to distinguish HCC from non-HCC on histopathology imaging.
