Detection and characterization of focal hepatic lesions with diffusion-weighted MR imaging: a pictorial review
The purpose of this pictorial review is to discuss the usefulness and limitations of diffusion-weighted (DW) MR imaging of the liver, demonstrating DW images of a variety of focal hepatic diseases. We include ...

Uneven haustra on CT colonography: a clue for the detection of transperitoneal invasion from gastric cancer
Two patients with gastric carcinoma underwent CT colonography (CTC) for preoperative work-up. Although no obvious peritoneal nodules were seen on axial CT images, colonic wall deformities were noted on three-d...

Constructing a Probabilistic Model for Automated Liver Region Segmentation Using Non-contrast X-Ray Torso CT images
A probabilistic model was proposed in this research for fully-automated segmentation of liver region in non-contrast X-ray torso CT images. This probabilistic model was composed of two kinds of probability tha...

Atypically enhancing hepatic cavernous hemangiomas: high-spatial-resolution gadolinium-enhanced triphasic dynamic gradient-recalled-echo imaging findings
We retrospectively investigated the appearance and frequency of atypically enhancing cavernous hemangiomas with high-spatial-resolution (512×224 matrix) gadolinium-enhanced triphasic dynamic gradient-recalled-...
