Categorias num relance

Cat.SignificadoCondutaRiscoFonte
LR-1
Definitely benign
Observation with definitely benign appearance. Examples given include simple cyst, typical hemangioma, perfusion alteration, focal fat deposition or sparing, hypertrophic pseudomass, and confluent fibrosis.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LI-RADS 1 - definitely benign'
LR-2
Probably benign
Probably benign observation. Includes lesions such as atypical cyst/hemangioma, perfusion alteration, fat deposition, hypertrophic pseudomass or confluent fibrosis, and distinct nodules smaller than 20 mm without malignant features (e.g. T1-hyperintense, T2-hypointense, siderotic, or hepatobiliary-phase hyperintense nodules).
Per the page, roughly 16% of LR-2 observations are hepatocellular carcinoma and about 18% are malignant overall.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LI-RADS 2 - probably benign'
LR-3
Intermediate probability of malignancy
Intermediate probability of malignancy. Includes lesions resembling focal nodular hyperplasia or hepatic adenoma; nodules smaller than 20 mm lacking major features but showing ancillary malignancy findings (such as intralesional fat, T2 hyperintensity, diffusion restriction, or hepatobiliary-phase hypointensity); and nodules 20 mm or larger lacking both major and ancillary features.
Per the page, about 37% of LR-3 observations are hepatocellular carcinoma and about 39% are malignant overall.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LI-RADS 3 - intermediate probability'
LR-4
Probably HCC
Probably hepatocellular carcinoma. Assignment depends on observation diameter, presence of non-rim arterial-phase hyperenhancement, and the number of additional major features present (washout, enhancing capsule, threshold growth).
Per the page, about 74% of LR-4 observations are hepatocellular carcinoma and about 81% are malignant overall.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LI-RADS 4 - probably HCC'
LR-5
Definitely HCC
Definitely hepatocellular carcinoma, requiring non-rim arterial-phase hyperenhancement plus, depending on size: an observation larger than 20 mm with washout or enhancing capsule; an observation 10-20 mm with two additional major features; or an observation smaller than 10 mm with both washout and enhancing capsule.
Per the page, about 95% of LR-5 observations are hepatocellular carcinoma and about 98% are malignant overall; the positive predictive value for HCC is noted to fall in patients with a concurrent extrahepatic malignancy.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LI-RADS 5 - definitely HCC'
LR-M
Probably or definitely malignant, not HCC specific
Probably or definitely malignant but not specific for hepatocellular carcinoma. Features include a targetoid appearance (rim-like arterial hyperenhancement, peripheral washout, delayed central enhancement) or non-targetoid features such as infiltrative growth, marked diffusion restriction, or necrosis.
The page notes a diagnostic biopsy can be considered when the differential lies between HCC and another malignancy.Per the page, about two-thirds of LR-M observations are non-HCC malignancies such as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or combined HCC-cholangiocarcinoma, and about 5% are benign.
radiologyassistant.nl LI-RADS page, section 'LR-M - malignant'
LR-TIV
Tumor in vein
Tumor in vein: unequivocal enhancing soft tissue within a vein, whether or not an associated parenchymal mass is visible. Supporting clues include an occluded vein with ill-defined margins, diffusion restriction within the vein, and vein expansion.
The page states LR-TIV is a contraindication to liver transplantation.Per the page, venous tumor invasion is almost always related to hepatocellular carcinoma.
