The accurate diagnosis and staging of hepatic fibrosis is crucial for treatment and prognosis of liver disease. The current gold standard is liver biopsy, but it cannot be used in population-based screening, and has well known drawbacks if used for monitoring of disease progression or treatment results. Functional MR, as a non-invasive method, is increasingly used in hepatic fibrosis and became the current hot spot.

Somatostatinomas are extremely rare endocrine tumors, and those with diameters above 2 cm are reported to increase the risk of metastasis significantly. We report a case of a large functional somatostatinoma in the pancreatic tail without metastases. A 46-year-old woman with a history of recurrent mild upper abdominal pain and diarrhea for 10 months was admitted to our hospital.

Different primary hepatic sarcomas may have different clinical, morphologic, and radiological features. In this pictorial review, we summarized computed tomography (CT) findings of some relatively common types of hepatic sarcomas, including angiosarcoma, epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE), liposarcoma, undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma (UES), leiomyosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), and carcinosarcoma (including cystadenocarcinosarcoma).
