Abstract: | Histiocytosis X (HX) is a disease of the lymphoreticular system characterized by histiocytic infiltration of one or more tissues. We present a case with extensive hepatic involvement in an adult visualized on ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The findings on MRI are strongly suggestive of the correct diagnosis.Correspondence to: T. C. Winter |
