Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Conditions
Keywords
Perfusion computer tomography, dual-energy computer tomography
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the hepatic perfusion computer tomography and dual energy computer tomography in the assessment of tumor characterization of Hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with resectable Hepatocellular carcinoma by comparing the quantitative parameters computer tomography obtained with the pathological data of the surgical specimens.
Detailed description
Dual-energy computer tomography and perfusion computer tomography (General Electric revolution Hight definition Gemstone™ Spectral Imaging) will be performed in all patients. Iodine concentration and quantitative perfusion parameters of the Hepatocellular carcinoma and surrounding liver parenchyma data will be compared with the pathological results.
Interventions
Will be carried before liver surgery
