Figure 1

Nine-year-old girl with a history of metastatic right nephroblastoma treated with chemo- and radiotherapy. Liver MRI with T1-weighted images without (a) and with contrast injection at the arterial (b) and portal phases (c), performed six years after the end of treatment, displays multiple hepatic nodules, from 1 to 3 cm large, that enhance strongly after contrast injection at the arterial phase (b) and have almost the same signal as the surrounding liver before contrast injection (a) and at the portal phase (c). Simple clinical and imaging followup was performed (courtesy of Dr. H. Brisse, Institut Curie Paris, France).
