The American College of Radiology (ACR) is updating its standardized system for liver cancer screening and surveillance ultrasound imaging exams.
The refinements to the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) focus on technique, interpretation, reporting, and data collection to improve patient care, education, research, and communication with referring clinicians.
The 24-page document includes screening and surveillance categories, a visualization scoring system, and technical recommendations for performing a screening or surveillance ultrasound exam.
There is no fee for access to the new LI-RADS.
