Figure 9A. Axial T1-weighted in-phase image. Normal-appearing liver

Figure 9B. Axial T1 weighted out-of-phase image. Multiple low-signal masses are seen throughout the liver.

Diagnosis:  Hepatic adenomatosis.

Discussion:  Hepatic adenomas can be very difficult to detect, as demonstrated by the in-phase image (see Fig. 9A). Some adenomas contain intracytoplasmic fat and will therefore lose signal on the out-of-phase image, becoming quite conspicuous. On the contrast-enhanced sequences (not shown), these masses enhanced, which excluded focal fat deposition as a differential consideration.
