Hepatic metastases of hemangiopericytoma: contrast-enhanced MRI, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography and angiography findings
Abstract
Hemangiopericytoma is a rare and characteristically
hypervascular tumour. We report a case of hepatic metastases of
hemangiopericytoma for which there was correlative imaging by
ultrasonography, ultrasonography with second-generation contrast
agent (BR1), computed tomography, gadolinium-enhanced,
Gd-BOPTA-enhanced and ferumoxides-enhanced magnetic resonance,
and angiography. To our knowledge, this is the first reported
case in which all these modalities were used in the diagnostic
evaluation.
