AI Article Synopsis
- The study details MRI and CT imaging results in a patient with inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver, noting that MRI provided clearer images of the lesions than CT.
- Immediate post-contrast MRI revealed multiple irregular lesions with intense enhancement and rapid contrast washout.
- The MRI findings prompted an open surgical biopsy for a definitive diagnosis.
Article Abstract
The dynamic pre- and post-contrast MRI and helical CT imaging findings in a patient with inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver are described. On immediate post gadolinium spoiled gradient echo images multiple, ill defined, irregular, and intensely enhancing lesions were seen. Rapid washout of contrast was noted. Periportal involvement was also shown on T2-weighted fat suppressed images. Lesions showed greater conspicuity on MRI than CT. MRI findings in this rare entity led to performance of a diagnostic open surgical biopsy.

Renal pseudotumors, which mimic tumors on imaging, pose diagnostic challenges that can lead to unnecessary interventions. Sensing ultrasound localization microscopy (sULM) is an advanced imaging technique that uses ultrasound imaging and microbubbles as sensors to visualize kidney functional units. This study aims to investigate whether sULM could differentiate between renal pseudotumors and tumors based on the presence of glomeruli.

Objectives: Current literature on imaging characteristics of hepatic inflammatory pseudotumor (HIPT) is limited. This study aimed to analyze the contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) features in HIPT and compare them with contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CEMRI).
Methods: A total of 83 patients with histologically proven HIPT from two medical institutions were included in this study.
