Overview
MRI
- The MR imgaing findings of hepatocellualar adenoma include;
- From hyperintense to mildly hypointense relative to liver tissue on T1 weighted images. This heterogeneous appearance results from areas of high intensity due to fat and acute hemorrhage and low signal intensity area corresponding to necrosis or old hemorrhage or calcifications.
- The hepatocellular adenoma in T2 weighted images are predominantly hyperintense relative to liver, although in the presence of necrosis and hemorrhage they can be heterogeneous with hyper and hypo attenuating signal.
- Dynamic postgodalinium show intense arterial phase enhancement with isointensity on portal phase and delayed images.
- Hepatocellular adenoma do not have a central scar so if a central scar enhances after godalinium is administered, the diagnosis of focal nodular hyperplasia is strongly favored.
- A central scar has never been reported in hepatocellular adenomas.
- With the injection of hepatocellular specific contrast agent, godalinium benzyloxypropionictetraacetate (Gd-BOTA) there is usually no significant uptake.
-
