Typical HCC in a patient with chronic hepatitis-C. Axial fat-suppressed SS-FSE T2-WI (A), axial in-phase precontrast (B) and postcontrast fat-suppressed 3D-GRE T1-WI in the arterial (C) and interstitial (D,E) phases. A nodule with 2 cm is depicted on the right hepatic lobe (arrows, A–E), showing mild high signal intensity on T2-WI (A) and low-signal intensity on pre-contrast T1-WI (B). On the dynamic postcontrast images, the lesion shows arterial hyper-enhancement (C) and delayed washout with pseudocapsule enhancement (D,E). These features are diagnostic of HCC.
