Hepatobiliary phase signal intensity: A potential method of diagnosing HCC with atypical imaging features among LR-M observations.

Herein, we assessed whether hepatobiliary phase (HBP) signal intensity (SI) can be used to differentiate HCC and non-HCC malignancies within LR-M observations. 106 LR-M patients based on LI-RADS v2018 who underwent gadoxetate-disodium magnetic resonance imaging and surgery from January 2009 to Decem...
