Bone Densities Assessed by Hounsfield Units at L5 in Computed Tomography Image Independently Predict Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development in Cirrhotic Patients

A previous study identified that bone density (BD) assessed by Hounsfield unit (HU) at T12 in computed tomography (CT) image was a predictor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in cirrhotic patients. Here, we conducted a verification study, where clinical variables together with BDs (asse...
