Popis: Abstract Objectives To investigate the value of vascular morphology on high frame rate contrast-enhanced ultrasound (H-CEUS) and CEUS Li-RADS in predicting microvascular invasion (MVI), Ki-67 expression and recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods This retrospective study enrolled 78 patients with single HCC diagnosed by postoperative pathology between January 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022. All patients underwent ultrasound and H-CEUS examination before operation. H-CEUS image features and CEUS Li-RADS were compared in different MVI status and Ki-67 level. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to select independent variables for MVI. Differences in recurrence among different H-CEUS image features, MVI status and Ki-67 level were further analyzed. Results Tumor shape, vascular morphology, LR-M category, necrosis and AFP level were different between the MVI-positive group and MVI-negative group (p
