Core Tip	Relevant studies on the performance of super?paramagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the detection and charac?terization of focal hepatic lesions were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library databases for articles published between January 1988 and September 2014 via a systematic review and meta-analysis. The results show that SPIO-enhanced MRI is useful in differentiating between hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and other focal hepatic lesions. Using hyperintensity on SPIO-enhanced T2*-weighted images as the criterion, the sensitivity for diagnosing advanced HCC was 98%. SPIO-enhanced MRI is a valuable tool for the detection and characterization of focal lesions in cirrhotic liver.
