Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer and a significant cause of cancer-related mortality globally. Early-stage HCC offers better treatment prospects compared to advanced cases, yet predicting tumour growth rates remains a major clinical challenge. Tumour volume doubling time (TVDT) can vary significantly among individual...Read more

Stroke remains a leading global health concern, ranking as the second most common cause of death worldwide. Among the various types of strokes, acute anterior-circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes are particularly challenging, often leading to severe disability or death. The advent of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has revolutionised...Read more

In locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), preventing local progression is crucial as it significantly impacts survival rates. Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) has shown promise in improving local disease control rates. However, determining the risk of progression in patients initially assessed as stable disease (SD) after IORT remains challenging....Read more

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common kidney malignancy, with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) being the most predominant subtype. Despite surgery being the main treatment, a significant portion of patients experience recurrence or metastasis, especially those with advanced disease. The Leibovich scoring system assists in predicting...Read more
