Abstract
Our results demonstrate DW-MRI has good diagnostic performance in the overall evaluation of hepatic metastases and equivalent to CE-MRI. Combination of CE-MRI and DW-MRI can improve the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Our study further confirms that DW-MRI can accurately detect hepatic metastases regardless of the lesion size. It is suggested to perform DW-MRI by 3.0 T devices, which might have high specificity to identify liver metastases.
