Correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and lesion size in focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) in the liver is a benign lesion and the relationship between lesion size and imaging features is yet to be established. We aimed to develop and validate a scoring system to assess the relationship between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and lesion size in FNH.

Methods

This cross-sectional study was conducted at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University in Shanghai, China, from August 2019 and March 2023. Three hundred and seven patients with 363 surgically confirmed FNHs were retrospectively enrolled (training set: 254 lesions, validation set: 109 lesions). Lesions were divided into large (>3 cm) and small (≤3 cm) groups according to the diameter. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess imaging features associated w
