Histopathological assessment of the viability of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Histopathology
Infections by the larval stage of the tape worms Echinococcus multilocularis and Echinococcus granulosus s.l. are potentially fatal zoonoses affecting humans as dead‐end hosts. Histopathological evaluation of hepatic echinococcosis is an integral part of

A deep learning radiomics model based on CT images for predicting the biological activity of hepatic cystic echinococcosis

Frontiers in Physiology
Introduction: Hepatic cystic echinococcosis (HCE) is a widely seen parasitic infection. Biological activity is crucial for treatment planning. This work aims to explore the potential applications of a deep learning radiomics (DLR) model, based on CT ...

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: a diagnostic challenge

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2011
We report a case of alveolar echinococcosis involving the liver in a 61-year-old male. Alveolar echinococcosis is a rare chronic and progressive disease, which can involve mostly liver and in rare cases lung and brain.
