Overview

On MRI, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by hypointensity on T1-weighted imaging and hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging.[1]

MRI

On MRI, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by:[1]

  • T1: Hypointense relative to liver parenchyma
  • T2: Hyperintense relative to liver parenchyma
  • Portal venous enhancement: Peripheral nodular enhancement
  • Delayed enhancement: Lesion fills in the contrast
