Overview

On CT scan, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by dynamic enhancement pattern related to the size of its vascular space.[1]

CT

On CT scan, hepatic hemangioma is characterized by dynamic enhancement pattern related to the size of its vascular space. Typical lesions include:[1]

  • Noncontrast: hypointense to liver
  • Arterial phase: Discontinuous, nodular, peripheral enhancement
  • Portal venous enhancement: Progressive peripheral enhancement
  • Delayed enhancement: lesion fills in the contrast
