Purpose: The major purpose of this paper is to outline and correlate US, CT and MR imaging findings of liver in patients with Wilson's disease. Materials and methods: Twenty-eight patients (10 male, 18 female, median age 16) with Wilson's disease were examined with US, CT and MR[. Liver echogenicity, echo pattern, contour irregularity, periportal thickness, perihepatic fat layer thickness, the presence of focal parenchymal lesion, and other associated findings were recorded by US in every patient. CT and MR] were done in 20 and 12 patients, respectively.
