Chronological changes in etiology, pathological and imaging findings in primary liver cancer from 2001 to 2020
Consistent with past reports, this study demonstrated the emergence of primary liver cancer against a backdrop of non-viral and non-cirrhotic liver. Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System has been consistently useful in diagnosing primary liver cancer; however, among the histological subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma, an increase is anticipated in scirrhous hepatocellular carcinoma and steatohepatitic hepatocellular carcinoma, which may present imaging findings different from those of ordinary hepatocellular carcinoma. This development may necessitate a reevaluation of the current approach for diagnosing and treating hepatocellular carcinoma based solely on imaging.
