    Notes: Abstract Benign fibrous mesothelioma of the pleura is a rare tumor of mesodermal origin. We describe the MR findings in three pathologically proven cases. All three tumors were imaged by MR as well-circumscribed lesions with smooth margins in contact with the pleura, but without chest wall invasion. Their low signal intensity on T1-and T2-weighted sequences reflect their fibrous nature. In one case a pedicle connecting the tumor to the chest wall was visualized on a sagittal MR scan. In two cases gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted gradient echo sequences revealed intense contrast uptake by the tumor correlated with the intratumoral hypervascularization noted by histologic examination. Although the number of cases presented is small, MR seems to be the most accurate imaging modality in the assessment of the diagnosis.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this study was to analyse the sonographic patterns of solitary solid liver lesions in cancer patients and to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound alone and in combination with other techniques (liver function tests, histology). A total of 422 solitary solid liver lesions (SSLL) were diagnosed by ultrasound in cancer patients; 197 lesions were benign and 225 malignant. The predominant aetiology for hypoechoic SSLL (128 cases) was metastasis (112 cases), whereas most hyperechoic SSLL (265 cases) were haemangiomas (155 cases) rather than a metastasis (86 cases). The 29 isoechoic SSLL included 27 metastases and 2 benign lesions. A halo was found to be highly predictive of malignancy (97%–100%). The positive predictive value for malignancy of an SSLL was very high when the results of liver function tests were abnormal (97%–100%). In our experience, histological proof is unnecessary in the majority of liver lesions in cancer patients.
