Part 2: MRI of hypervascular focal liver lesions using liver specific contrast agents

Abstract: Hypervascular liver lesions are frequently encountered and can be characterised by using hepatobiliary contrast agents at MRI examinations. The imaging characteristics of a variety of hypervascular liver lesions are presented with an emphasis on differentiating features.

“…Despite these potential differences, the additional information gained by using liver‐specific contrast agents increases the accuracy diagnosing FNH compared with other modalities, particularly in atypical FNH, and allows accurate differentiation from other hypervascular lesions such as hepatocellular adenoma. The appearance of other hypervascular focal liver lesions using liver‐specific contrast agents is described in Part 2 of this series …”

“…El ácido gadoxético es de gran utilidad en la detección y caracterización de lesiones focales hepáticas y en la valoración de la vía biliar, suministrando información adicional a las secuencias convencionales. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Debido a su estructura molecular, que contiene una parte hidrosoluble y otra lipofílica (EOB-etoxibencil), muestra un mecanismo de acción bifásico. Inicialmente presenta una distribución en el espacio extracelular que permite la adquisición de imágenes dinámicas (arterial, portal y transicional).…”

“…En esas circunstancias, el realce del parénquima puede ser débil, haciendo que las estructuras vasculares y los hemangiomas se observen isointensos en la fase hepatobiliar. 6,11,35 Es así como, al usar medios de contraste órgano específicos, hay una mayor detección de las diferentes lesiones focales hepáticas ya que se comportan de acuerdo a su histología y se aumenta de 80% a 87% el rendimiento diagnóstico de la RM. 36,37 En la ►Tabla 1 se resumen los hallazgos en la RM con medios de contraste órgano específicos de las diferentes lesiones focales.…”
