Abstract
There is no doubt that radiologists play an increasingly important role in the detection of focal liver lesions, and in the evaluation of persistent or recurrent malignant disease after treatment. The characterization of focal liver lesions depends on the clinical integration of the information generated by different radiologic techniques. Most often, MR imaging is quite effective in liver tumor characterization. Our purpose is to provide an overview of the MR characteristics of the most commonly encountered liver tumors and their differential diagnosis, with the most accepted reliable proof of the lesion type in a clinical environment. Radiologists must know the level of confidence they can reach in a given diagnosis, and the influence that this diagnosis has in the patient's management. With this knowledge, radiologists decide whether to leave or follow-up the lesion, perform tissue samples, or carry out therapeutic procedures.
