Table 2 Imaging enhancement pattern of cirrhotic nodules and malignant focal liver lesions on Contrast-enhanced ultrasound

Lesion	Arterial phase	Portal venous phase	Late phase	Post-vascular phase
RN	Hypo-enhance	Iso-enhance	Iso-enhance	Iso-enhance
DN	Hypo-enhance or partial hyper-enhanced within lesion (early-HCC)	Iso-enhance	Iso-enhance	Iso-enhance
HCC	Hyper-enhance	Hypo-enhance or iso-enhance	Hypo-enhance or iso-enhance¹	Hypo-enhance (mild and late washout) or iso-enhance¹
ICC	Rim-enhance or Hyper-enhance with early washout (< 60 seconds)	Hypo-enhance	Hypo-enhance	Hypo-enhance
Metastasis	Rim-enhance or Hyper-enhance with early washout (< 60 seconds)	Hypo-enhance	Hypo-enhance	Hypo-enhance

¹Well differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma. RN: Regenerative nodules; DN: Dysplastic nodules; HCC: Hepatocellular carcinoma; ICC: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
