Abstract

The report deals with potential of present-day techniques for radiological imaging, differential diagnosis and working out of modalities of treatment for primary and metastatic hepatic tumors. Results of complex examination (ultrasound, CT, MRI, PET using fluorine -18 FDG) of patients with benign and malignant tumors are discussed. Sensitivity and specificity of each procedure have been identified to be used in diagnosis of large-size tumors.
