Background We assessed the usefulness of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for the prediction of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) after a major hepatectomy. Methods We reviewed 140 cases involving a hepatectomy of two or more sections between 2010 and 2016 (study cohort). We used the standardized remnant hepatocellular uptake index (SrHUI) which was calculated by SrHUI = future remnant liver volume × [(signal intensity of remnant liver on hepatobiliary phase images/signal intensity of spleen
