Brief summary
The purpose of this clinical study is to perform phosphorus nucleus (31P) and sodium nucleus (23Na) imaging of the liver in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and healthy volunteers using the MR 7700 Magnetic Resonance Equipment, in order to explore the manifestations of multinuclear imaging in HCC patients and healthy volunteers.
Interventions
Using the Magnetic Resonance Equipment to perform phosphorus nucleus (31P) and sodium nucleus (23Na) scanning

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ratio of metabolites (PME/PDE) | 14 days (anticipated)] after finishing 31P-MRS scanning | By comparing the ratios of metabolites (PME/PDE) in the liver, the effectiveness of 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-MRS) was evaluated. Theoretically,the PME/PDE ratio in patients with HCC was higher than that in healthy volunteers. |
| Image quality of 23Na-MRI | 14 days (anticipated)] after finishing 23Na-MRI scanning | Image quality will be assessed by Likert score (1-5) |
| Adverse Event | From the time the subjects signed the ICF to completion of study visit(1 day). | Monitor adverse events and serious adverse events during the study,summarize and analyze the frequency and percentage of all adverse events (including severe adverse events) |
