Abstract:
Microvascular invasion (MVI) is one of invasive behaviors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), related with the prognosis and post-treatment recurrence of HCC. Preoperative noninvasive and accurate prediction of MVI is of vital importance to select reasonable clinical treatment and improve patient's prognosis. At present, there are no recognized criteria for preoperative diagnosis of MVI in clinical practice. Preoperative imaging prediction of MVI has become a current research focus, and the relative research progresses were reviewed in this article.
