The combination of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR imaging and DW imaging yielded better diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity in the detection of small HCCs than each MR imaging technique alone.

The long-term OS and DFS were not significantly different between repeated hepatic resection and RF ablation for patients with recurrent HCC after hepatic resection.

Volumetric MR-guided HIFU ablation with a one-layer strategy is safe and effective for treatment of large uterine fibroids. Effectiveness of this strategy showed a significant negative correlation with K(trans) values at baseline DCE MR imaging.

In approximately half of the patients for whom percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of HCC is requested, the procedure is not feasible, mainly due to inconspicuous tumors, at planning sonography. Additional objective criteria for assessing the feasibility of radiofrequency ablation and therapeutic strategies according to the reasons for infeasibility should be investigated further.
