Journal ArticleDOI
Diffusion-weighted imaging of soft tissue tumors: usefulness of the apparent diffusion coefficient for differential diagnosis.
Shuji Nagata,Hiroshi Nishimura,Masafumi Uchida,Jun Sakoda,Tatsuyuki Tonan,Kouji Hiraoka,Kensei Nagata,Jun Akiba,Toshi Abe,Naofumi Hayabuchi +9 more
TL;DR: The ADC value might be useful for diagnosing the malignancy of nonmyxoid soft tissue tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the Mean and Entropy of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values in Chronic Hepatitis C: Correlation with Pathologic Fibrosis Stage and Inflammatory Activity Grade
Kiminori Fujimoto,Tatsuyuki Tonan,Sanae Azuma,Masayoshi Kage,Osamu Nakashima,Takeshi Johkoh,Naofumi Hayabuchi,Koji Okuda,Takumi Kawaguchi,Michio Sata,Aliya Qayyum +10 more
TL;DR: Assessment of a combination of mean and entropy apparent diffusion coefficient values obtained at diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in patients with chronic hepatitis C is more accurate for predicting pathologic hepatic fibrosis stage and inflammatory activity grade and helpful for detecting early fibrotic or inflammatory activity when compared with assessment of mean ADC alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periostin, a matrix protein, has potential as a novel serodiagnostic marker for cholangiocarcinoma
Kiminori Fujimoto,Takumi Kawaguchi,Osamu Nakashima,Junya Ono,Shoichiro Ohta,Atsushi Kawaguchi,Tatsuyuki Tonan,Koichi Ohshima,Hirohisa Yano,Naofumi Hayabuchi,Kenji Izuhara,Michio Sata +11 more
TL;DR: Serum periostin levels were significantly elevated in patients with CCA and enable distinction between C CA and other hepatic malignancies and demonstrated increased expression of periastin in the stroma of CCA tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging predicts malignant potential in small hepatocellular carcinoma
Shusuke Okamura,Shuji Sumie,Tatsuyuki Tonan,Masahito Nakano,Manabu Satani,Shigeo Shimose,Tomotake Shirono,Hideki Iwamoto,Hajime Aino,Takashi Niizeki,Nobuyoshi Tajiri,Ryoko Kuromatsu,Koji Okuda,Osamu Nakashima,Takuji Torimura +14 more
TL;DR: ADC is useful for predicting poorly differentiated HCCs and microvascular invasion, and low ADC is associated with increased recurrence risk for small H CCs after hepatectomy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum albumin level is a notable profiling factor for non-B, non-C hepatitis virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma: A data-mining analysis.
Shingo Yamada,Atsushi Kawaguchi,Takumi Kawaguchi,Nobuyoshi Fukushima,Ryoko Kuromatsu,Shuji Sumie,Akio Takata,Masahito Nakano,Manabu Satani,Tatsuyuki Tonan,Kiminori Fujimoto,Hiroji Shima,Tatsuyuki Kakuma,Takuji Torimura,Michael Charlton,Michio Sata +15 more
TL;DR: This work aimed to investigate the independent risk factors and profiles associated with NBNC‐HCC using a data‐mining technique.
