Advanced imaging techniques in the therapeutic response of transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma

Figure 2 Fifty-three-year-old female patient with hepatocellular carcinoma in the right lobe of the liver. A: Axial T1-weighted image shows a hypointense mass lesion; B: Axial T2-weighted image shows a hyperintense mass lesion; C: Contrast-enhanced MRI during the arterial phase showing lesion enhancement; D: Mapping of the estimated value of the D parameter. The average value in the lesion ROI was D = 1.22 × 10^-3 mm²/s; E: Mapping of the estimated value of the D* parameter. The average value in the lesion ROI was D* = 20.6 × 10^-3 mm²/s; F: Mapping of the perfusion fraction (f) with a value of 19.6%.
