[Radiological diagnosis of cavernous hemangioma of the liver (author's transl)].

Eight cases of cavernous hemangioma of the liver are described and their sonographic, scintigraphic, computertomographic and angiographic findings are discussed. The angiographic diagnosis was the most reliable, especially when the computertomography was performed without using contrast medium for tissue enhancement. In cases of doubt laparatomy was necessary in order to maintain a histological diagnosis.
