The diagnostic and economic impact of contrast imaging techniques in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis
Angelo Sangiovanni,Matteo Angelo Manini,Massimo Iavarone,Raffaella Romeo,Laura Forzenigo,Mirella Fraquelli,Sara Massironi,Cristina Della Corte,Guido Ronchi,Maria Grazia Rumi,Piero Biondetti,Massimo Colombo +11 more
TL;DR: In patients with cirrhosis with a 1–2 cm nodule detected during surveillance, a single imaging technique showing a typical contrast pattern confidently permits the diagnosis of HCC, thereby reducing the need for FNB examinations.
