Abstract
The Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System® (LI-RADS®) is an American College of Radiology (ACR) initiative whose immediate goal is to standardize reporting and data collection of non-invasive imaging for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It provides the features for a confident diagnosis of HCC in the liver in at-risk patients and, for nodules not meeting HCC criteria, an ordinal classification based on the relative probability of HCC or non-hepatocellular malignancy. The Steering Committee is chaired by Prof Claude Sirlin (University of California, San Diego). The first LI-RADS® scheme was released by the ACR website in 2011 (with subsequent updates in 2013 and 2014) and focuse on CT and MRI.
