Preoperative assessment of the histopathological growth patterns of colorectal liver metastasis on CT using artificial intelligence

Background: Histopathological growth patterns (HGP) are a biomarker for predicting survival and systemic treatment effectiveness in colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). Currently, HGP assessment in CRLM requires the resection specimen. Predicting the HGP from preoperative medical imaging could allow more personalised care and better outcomes....
