Molecular and pathological
characteristics of the tumor microenvironment have
been shown to cause tumor heterogeneity and variability in therapeutic
responses. We used functional MRI to evaluate the changes in tumor
microenvironment after treatment with sorafenib and anti-PD-L1 antibody for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The results indicated that DWI-MRI
and MRS could dynamically assess microenvironmental changes including tumor
necrosis and tumor hypoxia. The
findings of this study
are conducive to the establishment of an accurate correlation between imaging
features-microenvironment characteristics-tumor anti-vascular treatment and
immunotherapy, and the realization of scientific and precise individualized
treatment of HCC.
