==Technique==
Requires a phased array torso [[coil]].
==Basic screening==
*'''Morphology''': verify size, borders and contours.
*'''Liver parenchyma''': Scan for steatosis, iron deposition
*'''Focal lesions''': Scan for nodules
*'''Biliary ducts''':
*'''Hepatic veins'''
*'''Portal vein'''
Search for extrahepatic findings
*'''Lymph''' nodes in hepatic hilum.
*Signs of portal hypertension: [[ascites]], [[splenomegaly]]; portosystemic collateral vessels
===Report===
[[LI-RADS]] (Liver Imaging and Reporting Data System) system should be used only if patient has a high risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis B or current/prior HCC).
==Lesions and diseases==
*[[Fatty liver disease]]: [[Steatosis|Liver steatosis]], [[Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis|NASH]];
*[[Liver iron deposition]]
*[[Cirrhosis]]
*[[Autoimmune hepatitis]]
*[[Primary biliary cirrhosis]]
*[[Primary sclerosing cholangitis]]
*[[Hepatic hemangioma]]
*[[Hepatic adenoma]]
*[[Focal nodular hyperplasia]]
*[[Hepatocellular carcinoma]]
*[[Cholangiocarcinoma]]
*[[Liver metastases]]
*[[Budd-Chiari syndrome]]
