Magnetic Resonance With Gadoxetic Acid for the Diagnosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis. Evaluation of Its Impact for the Non-invasive Diagnosis
The investigators plan to define the imaging patterns of hepatocellular carcinoma in
cirrhotic patients when studied with gadoxetic acid magnetic resonance imaging including the
dynamic phase and the hepatobiliary phase at 10 and 20 minutes after contrast injection and
to evaluate the usefulness of liver magnetic resonance imaging with gadoxetic acid in the
differentiation between benign and malignant nodules in the cirrhotic liver. To determine
the diagnosis and clinical significance of the infracentimetric additional nodules detected
in the hepatobiliary phase
