Key Components to Successfully Integrating LI-RADS in Centers

Riccardo Lencioni, MD, professor in the Department of Radiology at the University of Pisa School of Medicine in Pisa, Italy, discusses how clinicians can successfully integrate Liver Imaging Reporting and Data Systems (LI-RADS) into their clinical practice.

Lencioni stresses the understanding that this is not like a lab test. It involves skills and expertise, as well as radiologists that are up to date with research in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and participate in HCC tumor boards weekly to be familiar with the language, Lencioni says.
