Hepatocellular carcinoma in the cirrhotic liver with helical CT and MRI: imaging spectrum and pitfalls of cirrhosis-related nodules

Yong Yeon Jeong et al. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2005 Oct.

Abstract

Objective: This article reviews the imaging spectrum of cirrhosis-related nodules on CT and MRI and differentiates between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and common focal lesions that can simulate HCC in the cirrhotic liver.

Conclusion: Knowledge of cirrhotic nodules and focal lesions and how they mimic HCC will improve the diagnosis and characterization of focal lesions in cirrhotic liver on CT and MRI.
