Fig. 5

A 64-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) without microvascular invasion (MVI). a Enhancing area found in the peritumoral area (arrows) adjacent to the HCC (arrowheads) in the arterial phase, which became b isoattenuation in the equilibrium phase. However, the NIC of the peritumoral layer with a 2-mm distance from the tumor margin is 0.03 mg/mL, lower than 0.082 mg/mL, which is the cutoff value for identifying MVI
