ABSTRACT
We evaluated the changes of gadoxetic acid uptake of the liver parenchyma after hepatitis C virus (HCV) eradication by direct-antiviral agent (DAA) therapy. The increase rate of the liver-to-muscle signal intensity ratio, the skewness and the kurtosis were calculated in the hepatobiliary phase. After sustained virological response, gadoxetic acid uptake of the liver parenchyma increased, but became heterogeneous. Our study proved that HCV eradication by DAA therapy could significantly affect gadoxetic acid uptake.
