Abstract: Primary liver cancer is a common digestive system malignant tumor. Positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) is a new molecular imaging technique which can reflect the metabolic status of tumors and provide more biological information about tumors. Radiomics is used to extract and analyze quantitative features that can describe tumor features in medical images with a high throughput. This article reviews PET/CT radiomics and its application in the diagnosis and prognosis assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
