Body MRI is the part of radiology most residents feel underprepared for when they finish training. You understand CT. You can read a chest X-ray. But when a liver lesion comes up on your worklist, there are six sequences to scroll through — and you're not sure what to make of any of them.

This course cuts through that. Thirty carefully selected DICOM cases cover the full spectrum of solid and cystic liver pathology you need to know. We start with a practical intro video on MRI sequences and why each one matters for liver interpretation — T1 in and out of phase, dynamic contrast phases, diffusion. Then you work through cases on a real PACS-style viewer, committing to findings and getting immediate Socratic feedback from the AI Attending.

By the end, you won't just recognise patterns. You'll understand why they look the way they do.

Who This Course Is For

R4–R5 residents. Body imaging fellows. Staff radiologists who want to be more confident with liver MRI. Any radiologist who wants to stop second-guessing liver lesion characterisation.

Pathologies include:

Get a taste for some of the pathologies covered in this course.

Solid Benign Lesions

  • Including haemangiomas, focal nodular hyperplasia, and hepatic adenomas

Malignant Lesions

  • Including hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and colorectal metastases

Cystic Lesions

  • Including simple cysts, biliary hamartomas, and mucinous cystic neoplasm

Diffuse Liver Disease

  • Including hepatic steatosis and iron overload

What You'll Learn

  1. 1Identify and differentiate common benign and malignant solid liver lesions using the key MRI signal characteristics and enhancement patterns.
  2. 2Characterise complex cystic lesions of the liver with confidence — distinguishing pathologies like simple cysts from biliary hamartomas and mucinous cystic neoplasm.
  3. 3Evaluate background diffuse liver disease including steatosis and iron loading using chemical shift and susceptibility sequences.

"I was fumbling around trying to read body MRI. Having a body radiologist walk you through a case step by step — it's probably the nicest comparison you can make to a slow reading room day where an attending runs you through a great case."

Dr. Ben Rothman, Radiology Resident, Dartmouth
