From: CT and MR imaging of primary biliary cholangitis: a pictorial review
Contrast-enhanced axial MRI scans in a 25-year-old female with PBC (stage I–II, Ludwig staging system) (a–d). The liver has a regular contour without nodular changes of the surface on the T1WI image (a). The T2WI image shows periportal hyperintensity (white arrows), and small patchy heterogeneity in segment II (red arrow) (b). The PVP image shows mild heterogeneous enhancement of the liver parenchyma (red arrow) with dilated small bile ducts in segment VII (white arrow) (c). The MRCP image shows segmental irregular dilatation of the small bile ducts in the right lobe of the liver (arrow) (d)
