| age (years old) | 60 ± 8 | 76 ± 10 | 69 ± 11 | 51 ± 16 | 0.012 |

Values are mean ± standard deviation for continuous parametric variables, median and range (min, max) for continuous nonparametric data, or n
HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; CCC, cholangiocarcinoma; ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient
* p-values were calculated using the Kruskal-Wallis tests.
