Systematic Review: AI Applications in Liver Imaging with a Focus on Segmentation and Detection.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The liver is a frequent focus in radiology due to its diverse pathology, and artificial intelligence (AI) could improve diagnosis and management. This systematic review aimed to assess and categorize research studies on AI applications in liver radiology from 2018 to 2024, classifying them according to areas of interest (AOIs), AI task and imaging modality used. We excluded reviews and non-liver and non-radiology studies. Using the PRISMA guidelines, we identified 6680 articles from the PubMed/Medline, Scopus and Web of Science databases; 1232 were found to be eligible. A further analysis of a subgroup of 329 studies focused on detection and/or segmentation tasks was performed. Liver lesions were the main AOI and CT was the most popular modality, while classification was the predominant AI task. Most detection and/or segmentation studies (48.02%) used only public datasets, and 27.65% used only one public dataset. Code sharing was practiced by 10.94% of these articles. This review highlights the predominance of classification tasks, especially applied to liver lesion imaging, most often using CT imaging. Detection and/or segmentation tasks relied mostly on public datasets, while external testing and code sharing were lacking. Future research should explore multi-task models and improve dataset availability to enhance AI's clinical impact in liver imaging.
