Compared with precontrast MR imaging, postcontrast MR imaging with Gd-EOB-DTPA demonstrated improved sensitivity for lesion detection in the majority of blinded readers, with no substantial adverse events.

Ferumoxides is a safe and efficacious contrast agent for the detection of focal liver lesions on T2-weighted images.

Mn-DPDP-enhanced MR imaging depicts HCC tumors not visualized with unenhanced studies. The degree of tumor enhancement correlates with histologic differentiation.

The consistency in the results and the size of this study suggest that with laboratory conditions, if a prevalence effect exists, it is quite small in magnitude; hence, it will not likely alter conclusions derived from such studies.

MRI was more accurate than ultrasonography and mammography in measuring the largest cancer diameters in this group of women. This was particularly evident for several larger cancers, and a postchemotherapy cancer.
