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

Figure 10  A 40-year-old woman with breast cancer showing a subcapsular millimetric iso-vascular metastasis only depicted in the diffusion-weighted imaging. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences could not detect the lesion. A: Axial CE-CT in the portal-venous phase; B: Axial fat saturated (FS) CE-MRI T1-weighted imaging (WI) in the arterial phase; C: Axial FS CE-MRI T1-WI in the portal-venous phase; D: Diffusion-weighted imaging showing a small lesion with high signal intensity on high b value corresponding to liver metastasis (arrow).
