MR Prediction of Liver Function and Pathology Using Gd-EOB-DTPA: Effect of Liver Volume Consideration

Figure 1

Hepatobiliary phase of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI. The signal intensities were measured by placing the largest possible regions of interest (ROIs) on the liver parenchyma, spleen, and erector spinae muscle, avoiding vessels, tumors, and artifacts. For the liver parenchyma, two round or oval ROIs were placed: one in the right lobe and the other in the left.
