  		Figure 2a. (a) Axial spin-echo T1-weighted MR image (500/16) of a noncirrhotic liver shows a large, well-circumscribed lesion (black arrows) compatible with HCC. The central scar (white arrow) has high signal intensity. (b) Axial fast spin-echo T2-weighted MR image (4,300/105 [effective]) with fat saturation of the same lesion (white arrows) as in a shows a central scar (black arrows).
