Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide with its incidence on the rise globally. This paper provides a comprehensive review of prognostic imaging markers in HCC, emphasizing their role in risk stratification and clinical decision-making. We explore quantitative and qualitative criteria derived from imaging studies, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, which can offer valuable insights into the biological behavior of the tumor. While many of these markers are not yet widely integrated into current clinical guidelines, they represent a promising future direction for approaching this highly heterogeneous cancer. However, standardization and validation of these markers remain important challenges. We conclude by emphasizing the importance of ongoing research to enhance clinical practices and improve outcomes for patients with HCC.
