Imaging evaluation of the liver in oncology patients: A comparison of techniques

Figure 6 A 85-year-old man with a large hypovascular metastasis in the right lobe from pancreatic carcinoma proposed for tumorectomy. A: Axial contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) in the portal-venous phase shows a large hypodense and hypovascular metastasis; B: The patient underwent magnetic resonance imaging. An additional subcapsular small metastasis was depicted in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) (arrow). This example illustrates the higher sensitivity for lesion detection of DWI compared to CT.
