Figure 2 Patient with HCC enclosing the right branch. A: T2 weighed (2000/80) images showed the tumor (H) having a higher signal intensity than the parenchyma. The right branch of the portal vein in the tumor ended abruptly, and appeared as a stump (arrow). Some irregular hyperintensity was seen in the dilated main and left portal vein (arrowhead). B: FLASH (100/6) imaging showed main and left portal vein dilation with heterogeneous intensity more clearly than did SE imaging. The IVP was compressed by the tumor.
