Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer, and surgical resection has been regarded as the most effective treatment of HCC; however, the high postoperative recurrence rate leads to poor prognosis. Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a risk factor for postoperative recurrence of HCC [1]. This study aimed to investigate the value of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and enhanced T2 star weighted angiography (ESWAN) for prediction of MVI in HCC.
