Added value of hepatobiliary phase gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI for diagnosing hepatocellular carcinoma in high-risk patients

Figure 2 Magnetic resonance images from a 59-year-old woman with hepatocellular carcinoma at hepatic segment VI. This patient underwent transhepatic arterial chemoembolization, and the 6-wk follow-up computerized tomography scan revealed lipiodol staining in the lesion. A and B: Arterial phase and portal venous phase images; C: T2-weighted magnetic resonance image with no definite focal lesion; D: The hepatobiliary phase image revealed a 1.0-cm discrete nodule that was not visible on the dynamic or T2-weighted images.
