The utility of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR imaging to characterize atypical cirrhotic nodules detected on dynamic CT images.

The utility of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR imaging to characterize atypical cirrhotic nodules detected on dynamic CT images.

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether gadoxetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MR images of tumors taken during the hepatocyte-specific phase can aid in the differentiation between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and dysplastic nodules (DNs) in patients with atypical cirrhotic nodules detected on dynamic CT imag...
