Objective To evaluate the value of magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) combined with dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE-MRI) in the evaluation and follow-up of residual lesions after liver cancer TACE surgery. Methods TACE surgery was performed on 48 patients with HCC from January 2015 to July 2016. The patients were followed up for 3 months. Detected by DWI or DCE-MRI alone or both of them to evaluate the detection rate of residual lesions. Results The sensitivity, accuracy and specificity of DWI combined with DCE-MRI were significantly higher than those detected by DWI or DCE-MRI alone(P<0.05). Conclusion DWI combined with DCE-MRI has a higher detection rate of residual lesions after TACE for HCC, and it is recommended to be widely popularized.
