The present study aimed to analyze the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results
from patients with hepatic perfusion disorders (HPD) and liver diseases, in order
to assess the pathogenetic mechanisms. This was completed byanalyzing the causes
of HPD in 35 patients to assess if they were associated with arterioportal shunt,
and classify the patients according to results from the MRI scans. Of the 35
patients, 26 (74.3%) with HPD presented with hepatocellular carcinoma, a major
cause of HPD. The HPD phenomenon in 35 patients was not identified as obvious
abnormal lesions on T2WI and T1WI according to the isointensity on diffusion
weighted images. Enhanced scanning showed hyperintense signals on the arterial
phase images, isointense or hyperintense signals on portal phase and delayed
phase images. According to their MRI findings, hepatic perfusion disorders may be
divided into different types, as follows: Diffuse, lobe or segment type, wedge
type and platy. The HPD phenomenon may herald an underlying abnormality of liver
disease and MRI may accurately diagnose HPDs in liver diseases.
