Zusammenfassung

Fokale Leberläsionen finden sich bei 5% der Gesamtbevölkerung. Da onkologische Erkrankungen hinsichtlich der Morbidität und der Mortalität der Bevölkerung eine wichtige Rolle spielen, kommt der Abklärung solch häufiger Befunde eine große Bedeutung zu. Nachdem im ersten Teil der Übersichtsdarstellung die auch für Radiologen wichtigsten Aspekte in der Klassifikation, Epidemiologie und Pathologie von Lebertumoren vermittelt und der aktuelle technische Stand der diagnostischen Verfahren erläutert wurden, beschäftigt sich der vorliegende zweite Teilbeitrag damit, die radiologischen Verfahren in ihrer Bedeutung für den Nachweis und die Differenzialdiagnose von Lebertumoren zu bewerten.

Abstract

Focal hepatic lesions occur in 5% of the population. The clarification of such common occurrences is of major significance because oncological diseases play an important role with respect to morbidity and mortality of the population. The first part of this review article dealt with the most important aspects of classification, epidemiology and pathology of hepatic tumors for radiologists and the current technical situation with regards to the diagnostic procedure. This second part of the review deals with the significance of radiological procedures for identification and differential diagnosis of hepatic tumors.
