Focal nodular hyperplasia vs. hemangioma:Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings
Journal Title: Annals of Hepatology - Year 2011, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and hemangioma are benign and generally asymptomatic hepatic tumors. With distinctive imaging findings on dynamic computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), differentiation of these benign hepatic tumors from metastases can be made. We described imaging findings of these hepatic lesions in a 57-year-old man who presented with rectal adenocarcinoma for staging.
