Accuracy of cross-sectional imaging in predicting tumor viability using the LI-RADS treatment response algorithm after image-guided percutaneous ablation with radiologic-pathologic explant correlation
The "non-viable" category of LI-RADS TRA even when applied to a relatively uniform percutaneous ablation cohort, demonstrated low sensitivity in predicting absence of viable tumor. MRI had more accuracy than CT in predicting tumor viability when compared to explant pathology.
