Abstract
Rationale and Objectives: To develop and validate a clinical-radiomics model of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) for the preoperative discrimination of Vessels encapsulating tumor clusters (VETC)- microvascular invasion (MVI) and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Materials and Methods: 219 HCC patients from Institution 1 were split into internal training and validation groups, with 101 patients from Institution 2 assigned to external validation. Histologically confirmed VETC-MVI pattern categorizing HCC into VM-HCC+ (VETC+/ MVI+, VETC-/MVI+, VETC+/MVI-) and VM-HCC- (VETC-/MVI-). The regions of intratumor and peritumor were segmented manually in the arterial, portal-venous and delayed phase (AP, PP, and DP, respectively) of DCE-MRI. Six radiomics models (intratumor and peritumor in AP, PP, and DP of DCE-MRI) and one clinical model were developed for assessing VM-HCC. Establishing intra-tumoral and peri-tumoral models through combining intratumor and peritumor features. The best-performing radiomics model and the clinical model were then integrated to create a Combined model. Results: In institution 1, pathological VM-HCC+ were confirmed in 88 patients (training set: 61, validation set: 27). In internal testing, the Combined model had an AUC of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.76-0.93), which reached an AUC of 0.75 (95% CI: 0.66-0.85) in external validation. The model's predictions were associated with early recurrence and progression-free survival in HCC patients. Conclusions: The clinical-radiomics model offers a non-invasive approach to discern VM-HCC and predict HCC patients' prognosis preoperatively, which could offer clinicians valuable insights during the decision-making phase.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
