SS-FSE, single-shot fast spin echo; FSE, fast spin echo; DWI, diffusion-weighted imaging; T1WI, T1-weighted imaging.

* Pre- and post-contrast injection, obtained at early phase [25 s], parenchymal phase [60 s], and delayed phase [180 s].

**Post-contrast acquisition obtained after 180 s.

***Adapted to patient size.
