Correlation Between CEUS Identification of Nodular HPD on CE-MRI and Hepatic Malignant Lesions

Hepatic malignant tumors are a category of diseases with high incidence and mortality rates worldwide, including various types such as primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), and liver metastases. With the advancement of imaging technology, the number of hepatic perfusion disorders (HPD) detected in high-risk population screening and follow-up has gradually increased. However, the imaging manifestations of these HPD are highly heterogeneous, and the imaging features of some benign lesions (such as post-treatment inflammatory reactions, arterioportal shunts, hyperplastic nodules, focal fat deposition or fibrotic nodules) overlap with those of malignant lesions, posing a challenge to accurate diagnosis. Therefore, how to improve the ability to distinguish the benign and malignant nature of HPD based on multimodal imaging technology and optimize the follow-up management of high-risk populations has significant clinical value.
