Conclusions
HCC
EOB-MRI has superior diagnostic performance for HCC diagnosis in pre-LT cirrhotic patients over CECT in specific categories, while it was inferior to CECT for LR-5 observations less than 2 cm. While both EOB-MRI and CECT have a lower diagnostic performance in a real-world scenario, EOB-MRI outperforms CECT therein. At a patient level, LT eligibility assessment appears to be comparable between EOB-MRI and CECT; however, both modalities have relatively lower accuracies for identifying patients exceeding MC compared to those within MC.
