title: Intrahepatic extramedullary hematopoiesis: MR, CT, and sonographic appearance.
abstract: A 45-year-old patient with focal intrahepatic extramedullary hematopoiesis is presented in which the liver was imaged by CT, ultrasound, and MR. The appearance of the lesions on MR consisted of slightly increased signal on T2-weighted images with heterogeneous enhancement of some of the lesions during bolus infusion of gadolinium. The T1-weighted images postgadolinium showed no delayed enhancement.
