Ultrasound is often the first point of detection of liver lesions, with up to 75% of liver lesions detected at ultrasound having benign histology. In 2012, NICE issued recommendations that ultrasound contrast be used for the evaluation of incidentally discovered liver lesions. This has been demonstrated to provide a rapid and cost-effective evaluation for incidental liver lesions, in many cases precluding the need for further CT or MRI scans. The aim of this review is to demonstrate the ultrasound features of benign liver lesions, and to demonstrate their further characterisation with contrast ultrasound.
超声常常是肝脏病变的首个检测手段,高达75%经超声检测出的肝脏病变组织学结果为良性。2012年,英国国家卫生与临床优化研究所(NICE)发布建议,超声造影剂应用于对偶然发现的肝脏病变的评估。这已被证明可为偶然发现的肝脏病变提供快速且具成本效益的评估,在许多情况下无需进一步进行CT或MRI扫描。本综述的目的是展示良性肝脏病变的超声特征,并展示其通过超声造影的进一步特征描述。
