“…It is generally expected that MRI is superior to CT in pseudocapsule interpretation [20]. Ehman et al [21] found a higher sensitivity in the observation of pseudocapsule and higher inter-observer correlation with MRI (44% and 0.62) compared to CT (31% and κ = 0.56) [21].…”

“…Metastases are the most common malignant hepatic tumor, occurring up to 18 times more frequently than primary neoplasms (49). These tumors most commonly manifest as multifocal, discrete lesions but sometimes manifest as a solitary mass or confluent masses.…”

Major technologic advances in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, including the advent of novel pulse sequences (eg, diffusion-weighted and steady-state free precession sequences) and the use of hepatocyte-specific contrast agents, have led to better image quality and shorter acquisition times, resulting in dramatic improvements in the noninvasive detection and characterization of hepatic lesions, particularly hypervascular neoplasms. However, as the role of MR imaging in clinical evaluation of the liver continues to evolve, keeping abreast of new developments can be daunting as well as confusing. A systematic approach that makes use of a simple decision algorithm can help differentiate hypervascular hepatic lesions on the basis of their distinguishing MR imaging characteristics and related clinical information.

“…Most of the solitary liver metastases appear hypodense relative to liver parenchyma on unenhanced CT images (11). On T1-weighted MR images the lesions are usually hypointense.…”
