These include an irregular capsular contour, T2 hypo/T1 hyperintense nodules and parenchymal heterogeneity with increased echogenicity at ultrasound. It has however been suggested that a ...
Figure 2. A: Non-contrast CT shows that the liver is full in shape and that the parenchymal density is uneven. The CT value is approximately 35-50 Hu. B, C: Contrast-enhanced CT shows uniform enhancement of the liver parenchyma in the hepatic arterial phase . During the portal venous ph...
