The detection and evaluation of liver metastasis (LM) is important in initial staging and follow-up examinations of neuroendocrine tumors patients. Our aim is to compare different sequences including multiple arterial phases (MA), hepatobiliary phase (HA), diffusing-weighted imaging (DWI), and T2WI in Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI, to find which sequence is better for detecting LM and which is better for size measurement. MA using CDT-VIBE were superior for the detection of small lesions. HBP imaging shows better repeatability in size measuring and may be a better choice for lesion size measurement during follow-up.
