Abstract

We used contrast-enhanced ultrasound with Levovist, a microbubble contrast agent, to diagnose a case of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH). A new characteristic finding of heartbeat-synchronized centrifugal enhancement was discovered. We call this enhancement pattern the "sonographic fireworks sign." It is expected to be useful for diagnosing FNH, especially when the lesions are small and it is difficult to depict a spoke-wheel pattern.
