Both LI-RADS and ESGAR guidelines presented high diagnostic ability in HCC diagnosis of MRI studies with hepatobiliary contrast agents. More complex LI-RADS criteria performed better than ESGAR guidelines and it may justify extra effort that needs to be put in the report. However, the results were not statistically different and the simplicity of the ESGAR guidelines should also be taken into consideration.
