Core Tip |
Gadoxetic acid-enhanced-magnetic resonance imaging (EOB-MRI) has been shown to outperform other hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnostic tools. Our aim was to determine whether EOB-MRI findings could be used to predict pathologic stage T2 in patients with solitary HCC, clinical stage T1 (cT1). EOB-MRI was performed in 114 patients with solitary HCC [39 with pathologic stage T2 (pT2) and 75 with pT1]. Large tumor size, corona enhancement, and peritumoral hypointensity in hepatobiliary phase images were associated with high risk of pT2 HCC. The sensitivity of EOB MRI for detecting pT2 HCC was 86.2% when two or three of these MRI features were present. |
