Abstract:
Objective To explore CT and MR manifestations and its diagnostic value of liver cystic lesions.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 78 cases with liver cystic lesions were collected,including 21 cases of inflammatory cystic lesions,30 cases of tumor cystic degeneration and 27 cass of congenital growth cysts.Results The detected rate of liver cystic lesions with CT and MRI was all 100%.For inflammatory cystic lesions,tumor cystic degeneration and growth cyst,CT diagnostic accurate rate was 76%,90% and 93%,respectively,and MR was 83%,93% and 100% respectively.CT and MR manifestations:Of all inflammatory cystic lesions,hepatic abscess and liver echinococcosis cyst appeared as cystic occupying lesion,the cysts were of tension,low-density band on CT or water-like signal intensity on MR around the lesions in hepatic abscesses.Liver echinococcosis cysts were of big cyst with small cyst sign and enhanced moderately in cystic wall post contrast-enhanced scan.The metastasis cystic tumors showed single or multiple cystic lesions and mild or moderate circular enhancement.The primary liver tumor's cystc degenerative lesions showed cyst-solid lesions on CT and MR,and were of enhanced manifestations of the primary tumors.Growth cysts were single or multiple low-density or water-like signal intensity,generally there was not enhanced.Conclusion CT and MR have great diagnostic value for the location and nature of cystic lesions.
