Figure 4 After 2 sessions of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), MRI shows the following findings. (A) T1-weighted imaging demonstrates mixed hypointensity of the tumor (orange arrow). (B) Fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging shows mixed hyperintensity. (C, D) Diffusion-weighted imaging (b=800 s/mm2) and corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient images demonstrate partial restricted diffusion. (E–H) Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI shows minimal delayed peripheral enhancement, with a marked reduction in the enhancing area compared with prior imaging. (I) On hepatobiliary phase imaging, the lesion is hypointense relative to the background liver parenchyma, with focal isointense areas at the tumor margins. The tumor (orange arrow) is clearly demarcated from the inferior vena cava (red arrow).
