Beschreibung: Purpose The purpose of the study was to assess the inter-observer agreement on the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of relative signal intensity of liver lesions on delayed hepatobiliary phase (HBP) MRI with gadoxetate (Gd-EOB-DTPA). Methods 105 patients with liver lesions, who had delayed HPB MRI using gadoxetate were reviewed retrospectively. For each patient, four readers (two fellows in training and two attending radiologists) qualitatively assessed the relative SI of the largest representative lesion on a five point scale, and quantitatively measured the relative SI of the lesion to adjacent liver parenchyma using region of interests (ROI). Intra-class correlation (ICC) and kappa statistics with quadratic weights ( k ) analysis, and maximally selected rank statistic were performed. Results Substantial agreement between fellows ( k  = 0.719; ICC = 0.705) and almost perfect agreement between attending radiologists ( k  = 0.853; ICC = 0.849) were found for both qualitative and quantitative assessments of relative SI on delayed HPB imaging. A cut-off ratio to differentiate between hypointense and iso- to hyperintense lesions by ROI was calculated to be 0.90. Conclusion Inter-observer agreement of liver lesion relative SI on delayed HBP imaging is high and may improve with radiologist experience. A cut-off ratio of relative SI at 0.90 may be useful to quantitatively distinguish hypointense from iso- to hyperintense liver lesions.
