4. MRI structure report of hepatic metastatic tumor*.

1. No. of liver metastatic tumors: 1−3 [ ] 4−7 [ ] 8 or more [ ]
*, only applicable to cases with hepatic metastasis considered by abdominal contrast-enhanced MRI. Not applicable for patients with liver metastasis after treatment. MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; LN, lymph node; CT, computed tomography.
2. Size of hepatic metastatic tumor: The largest lesion ______ mm is located in _______ segment
3. Distribution of lesions:
 Caudate S1 [ ]
 Left lobe S2 [ ] S3 [ ] S4 [ ]
 Right lobe S5 [ ] S6 [ ] S7 [ ] S8 [ ]
4. Relationship with important blood vessels:
 Right portal vein Trunk Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
Branch Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
 Left portal vein Trunk Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
Branch Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
 Right hepatic vein Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
 Middle hepatic vein Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
 Left hepatic vein Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
 Inferior vena cava Not shown [ ] Shift [ ] Next to [ ] Well-defined [ ]
5. Hilar lymph nodes: Yes [ ] No [ ]
 Size of the largest LN ___ mm × ___ mm
6. Origin of vascular variation:
 Left hepatic artery Arteria hepatica propria [ ] Left gastric artery [ ]
 Right hepatic artery Arteria hepatica propria [ ] Superior mesenteric artery [ ]
 Common hepatic artery Celiac trunk [ ] Superior mesenteric artery [ ] Abdominal aorta [ ]
7. Uncertain transfer lesions: Yes [ ] No [ ]
8. Location distribution of uncertain transfer lesions:
 Caudate S1 [ ]
 Left lobe S2 [ ] S3 [ ] S4 [ ]
 Right lobe S5 [ ] S6 [ ] S7 [ ] S8 [ ]
Suggestions: For the lesions less than 10 mm shown by CT results, it is recommended that indeterminate metastatic lesions should be classified and further evaluation by hepatic contrast-enhanced MRI should be done, except for those with typical metastatic tumor features
