Abstract
To determine whether paradoxic uptake of gadoliniumethoxybenzyl‐diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd‐EOB‐DTPA) occurs only with highly differentiated hepatocellular carcinomas, quantitative image analysis was performed in 37 mice with 133 hepatocellular carcinomas. The results of lesion/liver signal intensity measurement and relative enhancement calculation indicate that paradoxic positive enhancement occurs independently of cellular differentiation.
