Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) requires thorough evaluation of the tumor stage to ensure precise prognosis and clear treatment recommendations, including consideration of liver transplantation. To achieve this goal, patient assessment must be based on both radiological and clinical parameters. The new HCC staging support in mint Lesion™ 3.0 therefore allows to easily capture a number of relevant imaging parameters (e.g. size, number, vascular invasion) and clinical data (e.g. Child-Pugh score and Performance Status). Based on these parameters, mint Lesion™ 3.0 automatically derives BCLC and TNM staging as well as liver transplantation recommendations according to Milan or UCSF criteria.
