Abstract
Purpose of Review
This paper reviews diagnostic imaging techniques used to characterize liver masses and the imaging characteristics of the most common liver masses.
Recent Findings
The role of recently adopted ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents will be emphasized.
Summary
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is an inexpensive exam which can confirm benignity of certain liver masses without ionizing radiation. Magnetic resonance imaging using hepatocyte-specific gadolinium-based contrast agents can help confirm or narrow the differential diagnosis of liver masses.
