However; viable neoplastic tissue residual may be seen after TACE. Assessment of post-TACE tumor response is important in determining treatment success and in guiding future therapy .\n\nMany studies have assessed the diagnostic performance of multiphasic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis of HCC with noted higher sensitivity of MRI compared to CT. CT or MRI are recommended for assessment of response after treatment as well .\n\nDiffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) are functional MRI techniques that detect signal changes in tissues due to water proton motion. The intact membranes of viable tumor cells restrict water diffusion, whereas necrotic tumor cells with disrupted cell membranes exhibit increased water diffusion and which differentiate the biological activity of HCC'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '85 Years', 'minimumAge': '20 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients who underwent TACE for unresectable HCC with patent portal vein based on Doppler, no ascites, and satisfactory liver function.\n\nAge between 20-year old and 85-year old.', 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients who underwent TACE for unresectable HCC with patent portal vein based on Doppler, no ascites, and satisfactory liver function.\n\nAge between 20-year old and 85-year old\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Estimated GFR less than 60 Previous history of severe allergic reaction to the iodinated contrast agent Patients with claustrophobia who can't undergo MR examination.
