All MRI examinations were carried out on a 3T MRI scanner without the use of intravenous gadolinium-based contrast agents. (Intera Achieva 3T, Philips Medical System, Best, The Netherlands). Multiparametric imaging sequence parameters included multiplanar SPIR (spectral presaturation with inversion recovery) fat-suppressed T1-weighted (T1W) imaging, T2-weighted (T2W) single-shot turbo spin-echo (SSH-TSE) imaging, SPAIR (spectral attenuated inversion recovery) fat-suppressed T2W SSH-TSE imaging, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). SPIR T1W MRI only in the axial plane, T2W SSH-TSE imaging in three planes, and SPAIR T2-weighted SSH-TSE imaging in the axial and coronal planes were performed in all patients. DWI was performed using a single-shot spin-echo echo-plana imaging sequence with a chemical shift-selected pulse sequence (TR/TE 2200-4000/90-120). Images were acquired using a motion-proving gradient pulse of the same strength applied sequentially along three orthogonal directions) with the use of two b values (0 and 1000 s/min2). Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were determined using the two b values, as mentioned earlier.

MR experiments were performed four days after RFA. All MR images were acquired using a 3.0 T MRI scanner (Intera Achieva 3T, Philips Medical Systems, Best, The Netherlands) with an extremity coil. Before MR experiments, rabbits were sedated and intravenous access was acquired via a marginal ear vein for injection of contrast agent. High spatial resolution coronal T2‐weighted MR images were acquired using a turbo spin echo (TSE) sequence (TE/TR=80/3300ms,turbo factor=10,FOV=120mm×120mm,matrix=512×512,slice thickness=2mm, and acquisition time=56min). DCE‐MR images including whole liver regions were acquired in the coronal plane with a T1‐weighted turbo field echo (TFE) sequence (TE/TR=4.5/2.3ms,turbo factor=30,FOV=120mm×120mm,matrix=160×160,slice thickness=2mm,flip angle=12, and sampling interval=2.4s). Baseline images were acquired for 5 s, followed by automatic injection of 0.2 ml/kg Gd‐DOTA (Dotarem; Guerbet, France) at 2 mL/s and then a 5 mL normal saline flush with additional acquisition over a total time of 4.8 min (total 120 dynamic images: 2 baseline images, and 118 postcontrast images). For T1 mapping, four precontrast images were acquired with the same imaging parameters using different flip angles (2°, 5°, 10°, and 12°).

All patients underwent unenhanced and contrast-enhanced CT scans prior to RFA. Of the 51 patients, 48 patients were evaluated using unenhanced and contrast-enhanced CT scans after RFA. The remaining 3 patients underwent unenhanced and contrast-enhanced MRI for follow-up, and < 0.5 mmol/kg of contrast material was intravenously injected. The follow-up period after RFA occurred between February 2010 and January 2016 (median, 26 months; range, 4–60 months). All patients underwent CT scans before RF ablation. Pre-RFA and post-RFA CT examinations were performed in 1 of 3 CT scanners (GE LightSpeed VCT, GE Healthcare, Milwaukee, WI, USA; Brilliance 40, Philips Medical Systems, Cleveland, OH, USA; Aquilion, Toshiba Medical Systems Corp.). MRI examination was performed in a 3-tesla MRI scanner (Intera Achieva 3T; Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands). CT or MRI was performed 1, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after RFA and every year thereafter.

All MRI images were acquired using a 3.0-T MRI scanner (Intera Achieva 3T, Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands) with an eight-channel sensitivity-encoding head coil. High-spatial-resolution axial T2*-weighted echo planar images were acquired using the following sequence parameters: repetition time (TR)=1,720 ms, echo time (TE)=35 ms, field of view (FOV)=240×240 mm, matrix=256×256, slices= 50, slice thickness=5.0 mm, gap=1.5 mm, number of dynamic scans=50, and temporal resolution=1.8 s.

All MRI examinations were scanned on a 3T whole-body MRI scanner (Intera Achieva 3T, Philips Medical System, Best, the Netherlands) using phased-array techniques involving pelvic or torso phased-array coils. Multiparametric imaging sequence parameters (Table S1 in the Supplementary Appendix) included multiplanar T2W, T1-weighted (T1W), and DW imaging with multiple b value (0-800 s/mm2) of the cervix. Gadopentetate dimeglumine contrast (Magnevist; Schering, Berlin, and Germany) in all the patients was administered intravenously at a weight-based dosing of 0.2 ml/kg with a bolus injection rate of 2 ml/sec using an automatic injector, which was followed by a 20-ml saline bolus injection.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
