Primary MALT-lymphoma of the liver: multimodality imaging

Crit Rev Comput Tomogr. 2003;44(6):347-55. doi: 10.3109/bctg.44.6.347.355.

Abstract

MALT lymphoma rarely affects the liver. We present a case of primary MALT lymphoma of the liver, which appeared as multifocal hyperattenuated lesions compared to the fatty liver on unenhanced CT and as moderately hyperintense on T2-weighted and hypointense on T1-weighted MRI. We describe the radiological imaging features and discuss the differential diagnosis.
