BACKGROUND Solitary cystic liver lesions are not uncommon, comes with varying age groups. To decide surgical approach and treatment planning of cystic mass lesion, specific diagnosis with high sensitivity and specificity is required from the clinician's perspective. To approach cystic liver pathology, specific diagnostic MRI protocol algorithm from literature is lacking. The objective of this study is to illustrate and prove efficacy of MR customised protocol that works better in delineating specific diagnosis of cystic liver lesions as compared to standard protocol approach.
