Core Tip

Core Tip: This letter underscores the pivotal role of radiological imaging in managing colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). It details advanced imaging techniques, radiomics, artificial intelligence, and radiogenomics, illustrating how integrating imaging biomarkers with genomic and clinical data enhances detection, treatment planning, and prognostication. Such innovations pave the way for precision oncology, enabling more personalized and effective therapeutic strategies for CRLM patients.
