CAIPIRINHA-Dixon-TWIST (CDT) Volume-Interpolated Breath-Hold Examination (VIBE) is a new MR technique for fast Time-Resolved dynamic 3-Dimensional (3D) Imaging of the abdomen with high spatial resolution. The technique seems suitable for the detection and characterization of focal abdominal lesions such as liver and pancreatic masses. Figure: 73-year-old man who had previously undergone selective internal radiotherapy for colorectal cancer. There are large avascular metastases (arrowhead) in the left hepatic lobe and also an avidly enhancing subcapsular metastasis in segment 8 (arrow) exhibiting gradually increasing enhancement throughout the total acquisition. A second, only faintly enhancing metastasis can be appreciated anteriorly to the metastasis in segment 8 (box). Gradual filling of the distal portal vein branches is also noted (Michaely et al., 2013). #MRI #liver_imaging #liver_mr_imaging #CDT_VIBE
