From: Liver imaging and pregnancy: what to expect when your patient is expecting
HELLP Syndrome natural history in a 31-year-old woman. Three subsequent scans, all in coronal plane reconstruction, portal venous phase. The first one (a) was held at the end of third trimester, when symptoms first appeared. Liver infarctions (*), ascites (star), and a little subcapsular hematoma (arrow) are seen, typical signs of HELLP syndrome. Immediate delivery was promptly performed after the radiologist’s diagnosis. Control CT scans held after 10 (b) and 40 days (c) show progressive disappearance of subcapsular hematoma and ascites, with calcifications all along the infarcted areas
