Core Tip |
Dual-energy computed tomography (CT) contributes beneficially to regional lymph node assessment in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, which can differentiate metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes for improving regional lymph node staging of HCC. Combination of maximal short axis diameter with dual-energy CT quantifiable parameters (iodine concentration, normalized iodine concentration, or the slope of the spectral curve) in the portal phase can be more advantageous in regional lymph node assessment. Active hepatitis does not deteriorate the detection and characterization of metastatic lymph nodes in HCC. |
