Hepatic Lymphoma: A Review of Diagnosing by Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography

Hepatic lymphoma is treated differently from other focal liver lesions. Familiarity with common manifestations enables early diagnosis and appropriate management, which improves prognosis and potentially avoids surgery or liver-directed therapy. Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography can provide valuable imaging information for diagnosing and differentiating hepatic lymphoma. The aim of this essay is to review the roles of conventional and contrast-enhanced ultrasound and illustrate common ultrasound findings in hepatic lymphoma.
