Sonic hedgehog hepatocellular adenoma: magnetic resonance imaging features and correlation with histology
Sonic hedgehog hepatocellular adenoma (shHCA) is a new hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) subgroup characterized by high risk of hemorrhage. ShHCA account for below 10% of all HCA cases and are often associated with...

Open AccessA dual-tracer approach using [11C]CH and [18F]FDG in HCC clinical decision making
Early detection of recurrent or progressive HCC remains the strongest prognostic factor for survival. Dual tracer PET/CT imaging with [11C]CH and [18F]FDG can further increase detection rates as both tracers enta...

Open AccessPost-treatment three-dimensional voxel-based dosimetry after Yttrium-90 resin microsphere radioembolization in HCC
Post-therapy [90Y] PET/CT-based dosimetry is currently recommended to validate treatment planning as [99mTc] MAA SPECT/CT is often a poor predictor of subsequent actual [90Y] absorbed dose. Treatment planning sof...
