Use of Two-dimensional Multiple-slice Magnetic Resonance Hydrography for Diagnosis of Hepatic Hemangiomas and Cysts

Use of Two-dimensional Multiple-slice Magnetic Resonance Hydrography for Diagnosis of Hepatic Hemangiomas and Cysts

Although hepatic hemangiomas and cysts display very high signal intensities on conventional T2 images, their appearances are quite distinct using magnetic resonance hydrography (MRH). We examined the feasibility of using MRH in distinguishing hepatic cysts from hemangiomas. Methods: We recruited 97...
