A patient with segment VII HCC measuring 6.5 cm. (A) and (B) Axial CT images in the arterial and venous phases, respectively, showing early arterial contrast enhancement of the lesion and contrast washout in the venous phase relative to the surrounding liver. (C) and (D) 3D reconstructed CT angiography images in AP view and oblique views, respectively, showing the possible feeding artery (arrow) to the lesion arising from replaced right hepatic artery from SMA (dashed arrow). (E) DSA of the SMA at the origin of the replaced right hepatic artery using 5Fr catheter showing the possible feeding artery (arrow). (F) Post-TACE DSA image showing complete opacification of the lesion with lipiodol after chemotherapy-lipiodol mixture injection through the microcatheter (arrow) in the feeding artery. Both observers identified the feeding artery in 3D images and DSA images
