Synopsis

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) are the most common types of primary liver cancer, which differ greatly in terms of pathogenesis, biological behavior, histological morphology, treatment and prognosis. The accurate diagnosis of HCC and ICC is important for treatment options. In this retrospective study, we revealed that APTw combined with T2 mapping could improve the differential diagnosis of HCC and ICC. Results showed that APTw combined with T2 mapping had higher efficacy (AUC:0.910). Further analysis also implied moderate correlations between APTw and T2 mapping.
