Trans-arterial gene therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in a rabbit model

Figure 1 Images in a VX2 rabbit with a solid HCC in group B. A: Pretherapeutic unenhanced T2-weighted axial MR imaging with FSE sequence (3000/89.2). The hyperintense lesion with a size of 9 mm×10 mm is well discernible from the surrounding liver tissue. B: Post-therapeutic unenhanced T2-weighted axial MR imaging with FSE sequence (3000/89.2) showing the hyperintense lesion (15 mm × 11 mm) with central hypointense area corresponding to the intratumoral necrosis.
