MRI of the liver has come of age. After a prolonged gradual period of development,MRI is now sufficiently accessible to radiologists with an interest in hepatobiliary imaging, and MRI techniques are sufficiently stable for this practical guide to be of value. We have been privileged to obtain extensive experience of liver MRI over the last 15 years, so committing to paper the knowledge, ideas, and opinions that we have accumulated during that time has been a natural consequence of our work.
This book is aimed at clinical professionals—from any discipline—who wish to develop or to supplement an interest in the clinical applications of MRI in patients with liver disease. After the first four chapters, which relate to the clinical indications, techniques, contrast agents,and anatomic aspects of liver MRI, we have taken a broadly systematic approach to the recognition and interpretation of different liver disorders. For us it is axiomatic that by the time a patient is referred for MRI of the liver,he or she will already have undergone first line investigations which typically include sonography and liver function tests.
Each of the Chapters 5–13 arebased upon the outcome of preliminary liver screening results for example,cystsandcyst like lesions are dealt with in Chapter 5, solid focal lesions in the non-cirrhotic liver in Chapter 6 and so on. One of our major aims in producing this book has been to offer the reader a large number of illustrative examples of different pathologies.
We have deliberately included multiple examples of some pathologies in order to indicate the potential range of appearances, including atypical as well as typical cases. Essential technical aspects of image acquisition are included in each of the “clinical” chapters, but there a derisurged to refer to Chapters 2 and 3 for a more detailed discussion of the choice of acquisition sequences and the use of contrast agents. Wherever possible we have also included a discussion of the differential diagnosis of conditions that may appear similar, and illustrative examples have been provided. This has inevitably led to some overlap between the contents of different chapters, but it has also allowed us to reduce the frequency of cross-referencing between chapters.
