HIF1A and hepatocellular carcinoma: Although central tendency parameters showed significant correlations between MRI methods and with each of histopathology and gene expression, heterogeneity parameters exhibited additional complementary correlations between BOLD and DCE-MRI and with histopathologic hypoxia marker HIF1α and gene expression of Wnt target GLUL, pharmacological target FGFR4, stemness markers EPCAM and KRT19 and immune checkpoint PDCD1. Histogram analysis combining central tendency and heterogeneity mpMRI features is promising for non-invasive HCC characterization on the imaging, histologic and genomics levels.
