Representative MR images of a 60-year-old woman with pathologically verified HCC without recurrence during a 5-year follow-up. (A) Axial T2-weighted image shows a hyperintensity mass (arrow) on segment VIII of liver. (B-D) ADC, sADC, and μdiff maps showing that the mean ADC, sADC, and μdiff values of the tumor (arrow) were 1.35 × 10− 3 mm2/s, 0.94 × 10− 3 mm2/s, and 1.99 kPa, respectively. ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient; sADC, shifted apparent diffusion coefficient; μdiff, DWI-based virtual shear modulus
