Bright-dark ring sign in MR imaging of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma
We describe the imaging findings in a rare case of multifocal nodular form of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma on ultrasound (US) and dynamic contrast-enhanced spiral computed tomography (CT) and MRI. The nodules showed multilayered target appearance on MR images with prominent peripheral rim with high signal intensity (SI) on T1-weighted and very low SI on T2-weighted images, corresponding to thrombosed vascular channels. The above combination of imaging findings is to our knowledge distinct and should suggest the diagnosis of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
