Abstract
Objective:
The goal of this study was to show the ability of three-dimensional multidetector CT angiography to display the angioarchitecture of focal nodular hyperplasia.
Conclusion:
CT angiography with volume rendering shows the anomalous feeding artery and hepatic draining veins that are characteristic of focal nodular hyperplasia. These features may be helpful in distinguishing focal nodular hyperplasia from other lesions.
