Abstract

<p>Diagnostic imaging of a primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is often difficult as this pathology is usually diagnosed by performing a liver tumor biopsy. Imaging of this tumor has been reported as a non-uniform hyperechoic mass on abdominal ultrasonography (US), low absorption on plain abdominal computed tomography (CT), only edge enhancement on enhanced CT, a low signal on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and a high signal on T2-weighted MRI. We report two cases of NET that presented as low echoic masses on abdominal US and as non-uniform masses on CT examination.</p>
