| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with β-catenin mutation showed high ADC value and high enhancement ratio on Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MR imaging. β-catenin mutated HCC showed lower AFP value, frequent pseudoglandular proliferation pattern with bile production and higher grade of differentiation. Such imaging findings will be useful to diagnose this less aggressive subtype of HCC.
