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

Figure 3 Magnetic resonance images from a 54-year-old man with a 1. 4-cm hepatocellular carcinoma with liver-specific contrast uptake at segment VII. This nodule was confirmed by tissue biopsy to be a well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma. Arterial enhanced nodule (A) without washout on the portal venous (B) phase images; C: A slightly hyperintense nodule with a hypointense capsule on a T2-weighted magnetic resonance image; D: Hepatobiliary phase image illustrating the hyperintense nodule.
