On CT scan, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by dynamic enhancement pattern related to the size of its vascular space.[1]
CT
On CT scan, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by dynamic enhancement pattern related to the size of its vascular space. Typical lesions include:[1]
- Noncontrast: hypointense to liver
- Arterial phase: Discontinuous, nodular, peripheral enhancement
- Portal venous enhancement: Progressive peripheral enhancement
- Delayed enhancement: lesion fills in the contrast
-
