• Feeding artery is more frequent in HCC than in regenerative nodules, low-grade dysplastic nodules, and high-grade dysplastic nodules. • Feeding artery feature is a valuable ancillary feature for CEUS LI-RADS to differentiate regenerative nodules, low-grade dysplastic nodules, high-grade dysplastic nodules, and HCC. • The existence of feeding artery, arterial phase hyperenhancement, and washout is associated with more GPC-3 positive expression and higher Ki-67 expression than the group without these features.
