  		Fig. 1A. —68-year-old man with cirrhosis. Transverse dynamic CT scans obtained during portal phase using contrast medium concentrations of 300 mg I/mL (A) and 370 mg I/mL (B) show that intrahepatic portal branches (arrows) are visualized better in B than in A.

  		Fig. 2A. —64-year-old man with cirrhosis. Transverse dynamic CT scans obtained during late phase using contrast medium concentrations of 300 mg I/mL (A) and 370 mg I/mL (B) show that hepatic parenchyma enhancement (arrows) is greater in B than in A. Contrast enhancement values are 37 H and 27 H, respectively.
