Do evidence of diagnostic enhancement pattern in hepatocellular carcinoma nodules ≤2 cm according to the AASLD/EASL revised criteria?
CEUS and contrast-enhanced CT did not differ in the percentage of small HCC nodules with diagnostic enhancement pattern, while Gd-BOPTA-enhanced MR imaging revealed the diagnostic pattern in a higher nodule number in comparison to CEUS and CT.
Muscle MRS does not confirm the findings of histologic and biochemical studies that suggest an alteration of mitochondrial function in PMR. No other modifications in glycolytic or glycogenolytic pathways or in proton handling were found that could indicate an alteration of muscle energetics in patients with PMR.
