Conditions

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Brief summary

The detection and diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma is a public health issue. MRI is the most sensitive examination for diagnosis and especially hypervascularization in the arterial phase. Several studies have shown that MRI multiphase arterial sequences are superior to single phase to capture the arterial phase. The purpose of this study is to compare arterial enhancement sensibilities between multi and single phase sequences.
