Usage:
If unsure whether an observation in the hepatobiliary phase is hypointense vs. isointense:
- Characterize as hepatobiliary phase isointense
Synonyms:
- Synonyms: hepatobiliary phase isoenhancement
- Preferred terms: hepatobiliary phase isointensity
- Rationale for preferred terms: Feature is descriptive of intensity relative to background liver parenchyma and may not truly represent the ability of the lesion to uptake or retain hepatobiliary contrast agents.
