Detection of Small Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract

Gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI can replace double-contrast MRI for the detection of HCCs. Because all HCCs were delineated on gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI, even with a low confidence rating, and 3 HCCs were not seen on double-contrast MRI, gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI could be more advantageous than double-contrast MRI for HCC work-up.
