Purpose: To assess quantitatively and qualitatively the enhancement effects and the enhancement patterns of hepatic hemangioma and normal liver tissue on contrast-enhanced MR imaging (CE-MRI) obtained with gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA). Methods and Materials: A total of 22 patients with 32 hepatic hemangiomas (high flow type=23, low flow type=9) in no...

Abstract Contrast-enhanced multi-phasic MDCT is the most important liver imaging technique in many institutions, when a focal lesion suspected at ultrasound. Lesion characterization based on size, shape, contour, and assessment of contrast enhancement pattern. If shows peripheral nodular enhancement, with density enhancing portions similar to vascular pool, hemangioma can be confidently diagnos...

CONTEXT The incidence of hepatic hemangiomas ranges from 0.4% to 20% in the general population. Conventional ultrasound is usually the first diagnostic method to identify these hemangiomas, typically as an incidental finding. Ultrasonography with second generation contrast materials is being used in various areas of hepatology, yielding similar results to those obtained with computerized tomogr...
