Thien Nhan pioneers the application of EOB-MRI in early diagnosis of liver cancer

On August 8, Thien Nhan Hospital (Da Nang) coordinated with the Da Nang Medical Association and Bayer Vietnam Company to organize a seminar on "Breakthrough in imaging diagnosis of liver tumors - The important role of EOB-MRI", attracting nearly 200 doctors and specialized technicians from Da Nang and neighboring areas. The seminar was granted CME by the Da Nang Medical Association.

MSc. Dr. Ngo Duc Hai - Vice President of Da Nang City Medical Association, Founder, Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Director of Thien Nhan delivered the opening speech of the workshop

The chair and speakers are leading experts in the field of Diagnostic Imaging and Hepatobiliary-Pancreatic from the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, such as: Associate Professor, Dr. Vo Tan Duc, Dr. Tran Cong Duy Long, Dr. Le Duy Mai Huyen; along with Dr. Ho Xuan Tuan - Head of the Department of Medical Imaging, Da Nang University of Medical Technology and Pharmacy and MSc. Dr. Tran Thi Me Tam - Deputy Head of the Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Thien Nhan Hospital. The theme of the conference marks an important step forward in improving the quality of medical expertise in the Central region.

Associate Professor, Dr. Vo Tan Duc, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City Association of Diagnostic Imaging, Head of the Department of Diagnostic Imaging at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, emphasized the important role of diagnostic imaging in the management, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of hepatobiliary diseases.

The workshop focused on clarifying the prominent role of MRI using liver-bile specific contrast agents (EOB-MRI) in early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), metastasis assessment, liver transplantation support and differentiation of benign lesions such as FNH with Adenoma, hemangioma... Experts from Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital also emphasized: the application of EOB-MRI not only increases diagnostic accuracy but also helps save treatment costs and improve prognosis for patients.

On the same day, Thien Nhan Hospital organized an intensive practical training session (Hands-on) on EOB-MRI imaging and analysis techniques, under the direct guidance of Dr. CKII Le Duy Mai Huyen - Deputy Head of the Department of Diagnostic Imaging, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City.

The training session helps Thien Nhan's team of technicians improve their skills, master the process of implementing modern techniques, thereby optimizing the effectiveness of diagnosis and clinical support.

Dr. Le Duy Mai Huyen - Deputy Head of Department of Diagnostic Imaging, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City reported at the conference

Currently, Thien Nhan Hospital is the pioneer in the Central region to own the MRI 3.0 Tesla Lumina system - the latest generation of imaging diagnostic equipment from Siemens (Germany) - integrating specialized hepatobiliary imaging techniques combined with EOB contrast agents (Primovist). This technology provides images of liver parenchyma and bile ducts with outstanding sharpness and detail, especially effective in detecting early stage HCC, small, atypical lesions or liver metastases that are difficult to detect on conventional ultrasound or CT.

In addition to the ability to perform in-depth analysis according to dynamic phases (arterial, portal vein, late phase and hepatobiliary phase), the system also supports risk stratification, disease progression monitoring and the development of personalized treatment plans, contributing to improving treatment effectiveness and clinical prognosis for patients.

With more than 3 years of experience implementing EOB-MRI technology, Thien Nhan Hospital is currently the unit performing the largest number of EOB liver and gallbladder scans in Da Nang, becoming a trusted address for professionals and people in the work of screening, diagnosing and treating liver and gallbladder diseases, as well as in early screening for cancer and stroke risk.
