4D flow MRI measurements in the abdominal aorta, common hepatic artery, and proper hepatic arteries are feasible and provide repeatable values before and after transarterial chemoembolization in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Blood flow showed no statistically significant change before and after transarterial chemoembolization in the abdominal aorta, common hepatic artery, and proper hepatic artery based on a Wilcoxon test (P = 0.87, 0.72, and 0.86 respectively).
