Abstract
The periportal region is a complex anatomical area that includes important structures such as the hepatic artery, bile ducts, lymphatics, and nerves. Due to its rich architecture, diagnosing lesions in this space presents a significant challenge for radiologists. Various pathological conditions can affect this region, ranging from vascular and lymphatic diseases to infectious and malignant lesions. This article explores the main periportal conditions through various imaging methods, including ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Therefore, understanding specific radiological manifestations is essential for differentiating clinical conditions and guiding appropriate treatment.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI is directed to all physicians involved in the performance and interpretation of ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging procedures. It is a timely source for the publication of new concepts and research findings directly applicable to day-to-day clinical practice. The articles describe the performance of various procedures together with the authors'' approach to problems of interpretation.
