Abstract

Hepatic hemangiomas are the most common benign tumours of the liver. In most cases they are asymptomatic and are being detected accidentally. Then, differential diagnosis excluding other hepatic focal lesions and follow-up are required. In this paper we survey different methods of diagnosis and assessment of the hepatic hemangiomas.
