Comparison between intravenous and intraarterial contrast injections for dynamic 3D MRI of liver tumors in the VX2 rabbit model

Purpose To test the hypothesis that catheter‐directed intraarterial (IA) contrast agent injection increases tumor enhancement and conspicuity compared to intravenous (IV) injection. Materials and Methods Eight VX2 liver tumors were grown in five rabbits. After positioning a catheter in the hepatic a...
