Patients of both groups with FLLs missed in L1-DWI. (A) 47-year-old female patient of group A who underwent a liver MRI for staging of colorectal carcinoma. In conv-DWI (upper row left), a FLL was detected in segment VII, that was not prospectively called on L1-DWI (upper row right). Taking all sequences from the routine MRI into account, e.g. T2-TSE (lower row left) and eTHRIVE (lower row right), this FLL corresponded to a cystic transformed metastasis. conv-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with parallel imaging reconstruction. L1-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with L1-regularized iterative reconstruction. T2w-TSE = T2-weighted turbo-spin echo. eTHRIVE = enhanced high-resolution fat-suppressed pulse sequence. (B) 46-year-old female patient of group B who underwent a liver MRI for staging of cervical carcinoma. In conv-DWI (upper row left), a FLL was detected in segment V, that was not prospectively called on L1-DWI (upper row right). Taking all sequences from the routine MRI into account, e.g. T2-TSE (lower row left) and eTHRIVE after injection of Gadobutrol (lower right right), this FLL corresponded to a thrombosed liver hemangioma. conv-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with parallel imaging reconstruction. L1-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with L1-regularized iterative reconstruction. T2w-TSE = T2-weighted turbo-spin echo. eTHRIVE = enhanced high-resolution fat-suppressed pulse sequence.
