Then observing the lesions in CT and MRI images on the distribution,size, morphology and enhancement characteristics. Results CT scan showed multiple lesions of hepatic biliary hamartoma were low density,contrast enhanced scan showed no enhancement. Lesions were long signal intensity on T1WI and T2WI, and enhanced scanning had no obvious enhancement, some lesions appeared edge enhancement and nodular enhancement. MRCP showed the multiple intrahepatic cystic high signal which was not connected with visible biliary tree. Conclusion There are certain characteristic in CT and MRI findings, which is helpful in the diagnosis of the disease, the final diagnosis depends on pathological examination was performed by living tissue.
