PurposeContrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a very sensitive diagnostic tool in characterizing liver tumors. It is especially useful in the diagnosis of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver. According to the previous reports, FNH is common in young women, and it is usually diagnosed by MRI. The majority of the previous reports come from European countries, and a very few studies of large series designed to describe the clinical features in Japanese patients have been reported. The aim of this study was to (a) describe the clinical features in 53 patients (59 lesions) diagnosed with CEUS and (b) compare the data with those from the previous reports.
