The purpose of this study was to compare @-minute delayed transitional phase imaging using a @ flip angle ( hereafter , @ min-FA@ ) and @-minute hepatocyte phase imaging using a @ flip angle ( hereafter , @ min-FA@ ) in gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI for focal hepatic lesion detection and lesion-to-liver contrast-to-noise ratio ( CNR ) , and to determine whether @ min-FA@ could replace @ min-FA@ with a @-minute time saving .
