Differential diagnosis

Primary lesions
Metastases

Although the majority of liver metastases are hypodense and enhance less than the surrounding liver, metastases from certain primaries demonstrate an increase in the number of vessels, resulting in a hyperechoic ultrasound appearance, and arterial phase hyperenhancement on CT or MRI which washes out on delayed scan (c.f. hemangioma which does not show wash out). The primaries typically include:
