Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Diagnostic accuracy

    The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of GPC3-targeted PET/CT and CE-MRI in detecting malignant hepatic lesions were calculated and compared.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Agreement of BCLC classification with the reference classification

    1 year

  • Lesion detection by GPC3-targeted PET/CT compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT

    Within 14 days

  • Gastric SUVmax Stratified by Gastric Filling Status

    1 day

Study Arms (1)

  • Estimated life expectancy of more than 3 months, as assessed by the investigator, and ability to comply with study procedures and scheduled visits;

You may not qualify if:

  • Lack of contrast-enhanced liver MRI or an interval of more than 14 days between GPC3-targeted PET/CT and contrast-enhanced liver MRI.
  • Receipt of antitumor treatment between imaging examinations.
  • The inability or unwillingness of the research participant or legal representative to provide written informed consent.
  • Inability to complete PET/CT imaging.
