title: [Dynamic computerized tomography with contrast medium for improved differentiation between benign and malignant liver lesions].
abstract: Prolonged dynamic CT up to 32 minutes after intravenous bolus injection of 100 ml contrast medium improves the differentiation between benign (hemangiomas) and malignant (metastases) liver lesions. Our study shows that there are three distinct types of hemangiomas and that all three of them behave differently than metastases. Prolonged dynamic improves the problem of differentiation between hemangiomas and metastases but does not solve the problem completely.
