Synopsis

Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a well-known major prognostic factor of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Unlike macrovascular invasion, which can be easily identified via imaging before treatment, microvascular invasion (MVI) is visible only at microscopy. This study developed a new method for the noninvasive interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) measurement in HCC patients. Our results revealed that MVI status can be predicted by this IFP model preoperatively,
