Ultrasound Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (US LI-RADS): Standardized system for imaging technique, interpretation, reporting, and data collection for screening and surveillance of US exams in patients at risk for developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
Screening: 1st-time application of diagnostic test to population at risk for developing disease
Population should have no a priori reason to suspect having disease
Surveillance: Repeated application of screening test at interval determined by disease
