简介
Purpose
To evaluate the features of arterial enhancement pattern of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by triple-phase arterial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods
Data were retrospectively collected from 52 consecutive patients who underwent triple-phase arterial MRI using hepatocyte-specific contrast agents (Gd-EOB-DTPA) from January 2017 to October 2017, with a MR imaging diagnosis of HCC or FNH. The images were independently assessed by two blinded readers. Contrast enhancement ratio (CER) and liver-to-lesion contrast ratio (LLCR) were calculated. The lesions were classified visually and also based on the peak of LLCR into the following groups: (1) early arterial, (2) middle arterial and (3) late arterial. Data were eventually analysed using nonparametric tests.
Results
The CER analysis showed no significant difference between HCC and FNH …
