Imaging features and management of focal liver lesions

Figure 2 Hemangioma. A: Ultrasound shows a well-defined hyperechoic lesion (arrow); B: Axial T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows a markedly hyperintense lesion (arrow); C: Axial T1-weighted MRI shows a hypointense lesion (arrow); D: Arterial phase T1-weighted MRI with an extracellular gadolinium-based contrast agent demonstrates peripheral, nodular, and discontinuous enhancement (arrowhead); E: Portal venous phase T1-weighted MRI shows continued progressive enhancement (arrowhead); F: Delayed phase T1-weighted MRI emphasizes these enhancement characteristics even further (arrowhead).
