Figures & Tables

Figure 1

A 45 yrs old female: CEUS study of inhomogeneous pancreatic lesion (A), with necrotic central area (arrow). CT (B), during late arterial phase of contrast study shows the same vascular profile (arrow) seeing during CEUS study.

Figure 4

A 41 yrs old male. CT enteroclysis examination shows lesion, in (A), as small, hypervascular, polypoid (arrow) and, in (B), as an asymmetric bowel wall thickening (arrow).

Figure 5

A 48 yrs old male with ileal net. CT during portal phase shows (A, coronal plane and B sagittal plane) desmoplastic reaction in the mesentery and lymphadenopathy (arrow); these features in T1-W post contrast study (C and E portal phase) show hypointense signal (arrow) and hypintense signal (arrow) in T2- W sequence (D) with restricted diffusion (arrow) in b800 s/mm2(F) and hypointense signal in ADC (G) map.

Figure 6

A 29 yrs old female with p-Net of pancreatic tail. The lesion shows inhomogeneous signal with cystic component (arrow) on T2-W sequences (A, B). MR cholangiopancreatography (C) sequence show its relation to the pancreatic duct and the main bile duct (arrow). The lesion shows restricted diffusion (D, E, F) and inhomogeneous contrast enhancement during arterial (G, J), venus (H, K) and late (I, L) phase as in MR as in CT (arrow).

Figure 8

A 63 yrs old male with solitary liver lesion. The nodule is detected (arrow) by 68Ga-DOTATOC-PET/CT (A, B), showing hyperintense signal (arrow) in T2-W sequences (C, D). The lesion shows hypervascular appearance (arrow) during arterial phase (E) and “target” appearance (arrow) during portal phase (F) of contrast study, with restricted diffusion (G, H). In (I) it is shown speciemen.
