Quantitative intratumoral susceptibility signal intensities (ITSS) providied a promising differential performance in automatically evaluating histological grading of HCC.
Figure 2. A 62 year-old male with poorly-differentiated HCC in the right lobe of the liver. (a) T2WI image; (b) phase map; (c) tumor was delineated around the edge of the tumor; (d) AS software recognized quantitatively and automatically ITSS ratio by reading phase maps. ITSS recognized were covered in green.
