Study Overview

Brief Summary

Distinct vascular patterns (ECTC or Non-ECTC) of tumors plays an important role in tumor migration, metastasis and drug resistant in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, there is no non-invasive method to predict vascular pattern in clinical. In the present study, we prospectively assess CT perfusion parameters for evaluation of the vascular pattern in HCC.
