Summary

This study is a prospective clinical study using DCE-MRI, DWI and MRS in 3T scanner to evaluate tumors in patients with unresectable HCC after TACE. A total of 100 subjects will be recruited. MRI will be performed before TACE (day 0), day 14, and day 28 to assess the tumor responses. After day 28, all subjects will receive standard clinical care and be follow-up for 1 year. The imaging parameters will be compared among each MRI and correlate with patients' outcome. The investigators hypothesis that it might be helpful to combine DCE-MRI, DWI, and MRS for assessment of tumor response after TACE and predict patients' prognosis.
