Comparison of imaging findings of macrotrabecular-massive hepatocellular carcinoma using CT and gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI.

• MTM-HCC on CT demonstrated previously described MRI findings, including arterial phase hypovascular component, intratumoral artery, arterial phase peritumoral enhancement, and necrosis. • The MRI diagnostic criteria for MTM-HCC were also applicable to CT, showing comparable diagnostic performance and prognostic significance. • On arterial phase subtraction imaging, MTM-HCC more frequently demonstrated non-rim enhancement and LR-5 and less frequently LR-M than MRI arterial phase, which may aid in the diagnosis of HCC.
