A combination of MRI diffusion-derived vessel density (DDVD) and slow diffusion coefficient (SDC) can reliably diagnose liver hemangioma: a testing of three centers’ data
When a combination of DDVDm and SDCm is used to evaluate the liver, HG and MFL can mostly be reliably separated without the need for a contrast-enhanced scan. Our results will be relevant for HG confirmation when MRI is the first-line examination for the liver.
