Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common liver related cause of death in cirrhosis.The pathogenesis of HCC is through a progression from regenerative nodules through dysplastic nodules to overt HCC.Unenhanced MRI sequences are unreliable for identifying and characterising HCC.The majority of HCCs are hypervascular and do not take up superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO).The accuracy in the detection of HCCs less than 1 cm in diameter is low.
