Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate clinical feasibility of annual non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging for surveillance of hepatocellular carcinoma in high-risk group, in comparison with biannual ultrasonography.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to investigate clinical feasibility of annual non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging for surveillance of hepatocellular carcinoma in high-risk group, in comparison with biannual ultrasonography. In addition, the relationship between non-contrast MR parameters and clinical manifestation of liver function is investigated.
Conditions
Interventions
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PROCEDURE | Biannual ultrasonography | Biannual ultrasonography for HCC surveillance, performed by board-certified radiologists. |
| PROCEDURE | Annual noncontrast liver MRI | Annual noncontrast liver MRI consisted of T2WI, precontrast T1WI, dual-echo image, DWI (single shot, multishot) and T2 map. DWI using multishot and T2 map are not included for initial MR reading. |
| PROCEDURE | Contrast enhanced liver CT | In patients without report of HCC during surveillance period, contrast CT is performed 6 months after the last MR scan. |
