  • Title: Echo enhancement behind solid intra-hepatic metastases: a potential pitfall in diagnosis.
    Author: Ignotus PI, Sandrasagra FA, Adam EJ, Joseph AE.
    Journal: Clin Radiol; 1990 Nov; 42(5):340-1. PubMed ID: 2245572.
    Abstract:
    Posterior echo enhancement is rightly considered a reliable sign of a cystic lesion. Three examples are given of solid metastatic deposits present within fatty livers which showed posterior echo enhancement. The reason for this finding is discussed and the importance of distinguishing such lesions from abscesses is emphasized.
