Abstract
The magnetic resonance (MR) appearance of an echinococcal hepatic cyst is described. A previous report has suggested that a low-intensity rim surrounding the cyst may be useful in differentiating hydatid cysts from other hepatic lesions. No such rim was identified in our case; however, MR was found to be superior to other modalities in delineating the internal contents of the hydatid cyst.Entities:
