Zusammenfassung
Ziele: To compare ferucarbotran-enhanced MR imaging and triple-phase helical CT using multi-detector row CT for the preoperative detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methode: Thirty consecutive patients with a total of 45 HCC nodules underwent ferucarbotran (Revovist)-enhanced MR imaging including dynamic study and triple-phase helical CT using multi-detector row CT before surgery. The diagnosis of HCC was established by means of pathologic examination after surgical resection in all patients. MR and CT images were reviewed independently by three radiologists on segment-by-segment basis. Accuracy for dia…
