Transient hepatic echogenicity differences

Last revised by Henry Knipe on 3 May 2024

Transient hepatic echogenicity differences (THED) are areas of differential enhancement of the liver parenchyma depicted with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using microbubble intravascular contrast agents. They are equivalent to transient hepatic attenuation differences (THAD) with contrast-enhanced CT and transient hepatic intensity differences (THID) with contrast-enhanced MRI 1,2.
