Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is used to evaluate the liver for both lesion detection and characterization. The value of MR relative to other hepatic imaging techniques is discussed. A review of MR imaging of the gamut of focal and diffuse diseases of the hepatobiliary system with special attention to both sensitivity and specificity, as well as limitations of the modality, is made. Development of new pulse sequences, fast imaging techniques, and intravenous hepatic contrast agents are increasing its usefulness for assessing the liver and biliary tree.
磁共振（MR）成像用于评估肝脏，以检测病变并对其进行特征描述。讨论了MR相对于其他肝脏成像技术的价值。本文回顾了肝胆系统各种局灶性和弥漫性疾病的MR成像，特别关注其敏感性和特异性以及该检查方式的局限性。新脉冲序列、快速成像技术和静脉注射肝脏造影剂的发展正在提高其在评估肝脏和胆管树方面的效用。
