Note:

No enhancement is defined as change in pre- and postcontrast imaging of <10 HU.
APW(absolute percentage washout) values are calculated using the formula (enhanced HU – 15-min delayed HU)/(enhanced HU – unenhanced HU) X 100%.
RPW(relative percent washout, used when unenhanced CT not available) values are calculated using the formula (enhanced HU – 15-min delayed HU)/enhanced HU X 100%.
