From: MRI assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma after locoregional therapy
CT versus MRI after TACE. a Arterial phase CT shows heterogenous lipiodol condensation without appreciable enhancement. b Delayed phase CT shows heterogenous lipiodol condensation without appreciable washout. c T2-WI shows a heterogenous signal. d Enhanced T1-WI in the arterial phase shows non-enhancement in most of the lesion with faintly enhancing peripheral nodule (arrow). e Subtracted image confirms non-enhancement in most of the lesion with a faintly enhancing peripheral nodule (arrow). f Enhanced T1-WI in the delayed phase shows washout of the faintly enhancing peripheral nodule (arrow). Final diagnosis is LR-TR viable which is highlighted by MRI, not by CT
