Imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis, characterization, and management of infectious liver disease. In clinical practice, the main contributions of imaging are in detecting early disease, excluding other entities with a similar presentation, establishing a definitive diagnosis when classic findings are present, and guiding appropriate antimicrobial, interventional, or surgical treatment. The most common imaging features of bacterial, viral, parasitic, and fungal hepatic infections are described, and key imaging and clinical manifestations are reviewed that may be useful to narrow the differential diagnosis and avoid pitfalls in image interpretation. Ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging allow accurate detection of most hepatic infections and, in some circumstances, may provide specific signs to identify the underlying pathogen and exclude other entities with similar imaging features. In bacterial and parasitic infections, specific imaging features may be enough to exclude a neoplasm and, occasionally, to identify the underlying infectious agent. US and CT are important means to guide percutaneous aspiration or drainage when needed. In viral infections, imaging is critical to exclude entities that may manifest with similar clinical and laboratory findings. Disseminated fungal infections require early detection at imaging because they can be fatal if not promptly treated. Familiarity with the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, imaging features, and treatment of hepatic infections can aid in radiologic diagnosis and guide appropriate patient care.
