Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a valuable factor for T1 staging renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC) operation strategy decision, which is confirmed histopathologically post-operation. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the performance of arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI for predicting MVI of...
