• Abbreviated MRI (AMRI) protocols consist of acquiring only a minimal number of MRI sequences for HCC surveillance with acceptable diagnostic performance compared to complete MRI.
• AMRI protocol options include non-contrast AMRI, dynamic AMRI or hepatobiliary phase AMRI post gadoxetate injection.
• The best AMRI protocol for HCC surveillance needs to be defined in a large multicentre prospective study.
