Hepatobiliary phase of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI in patients with HCC: prognostic features before resection, ablation, or TACE.

• In patients who underwent resection for HCC, a large tumor size on HBP images was associated with poor disease-free survival and overall survival. • In the RFA group, satellite nodules and peritumoral hypointensity on HBP images, along with decreased serum albumin levels and PT-INR, were associated with poor disease-free survival and/or overall survival. • In the TACE group, no clinical or HBP imaging features were associated with disease-free survival or overall survival.
