Abstract
To compare Gadoxetic acid and Gadobenate dimeglumine in the detection and characterization of liver masses. In this study, 59 lesions in 28 patients are included in which were dynamic MRI that had been used Gadoxetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) and Gadobenate dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA). Observers recorded the liver lesions and adjacent parenchymal signal intensities (SI) in precontrast, arterial and hepatocyte phase by using the ROIs for the quantitative analysis. All statistical analyzes were performed with SPSS 22 software. p
