Cholecystitis 21 At MRI, CCC appears hypointense on T1-w and hyperintense on T2-w images and may present with delayed enhancement. A thickened bile duct wall >5 mm is considered suspicious. Cholangitis Acute cholangitis occurs due to bacterial infection of the obstructed biliary tree from the GI tract or the portal venous system. Cholangitis is a life-threatening condition if untreated which may also lead to hepatic abscess formation. Typical imaging findings are thickening of biliary ducts, presenting with mural enhancement as well as irregularity and beading of intrahepatic bile ducts.

Moderate peripheral enhancement and delayed central enhancement are seen. Definitive diagnosis of HEHE is established by immunohistochemical evidence of endothelial differentiation. Haemangioma Haemangioma is the most common benign liver tumour, comprised of interconnected endothelial-lined vascular channels, enclosed within loose fibroblastic stroma and fed by hepatic artery branches.
