"T1: typically iso to hypointense to the liver"
"T2: hypo to slightly hyperintense"
"Technetium-99m sulfur colloid scans (taken up by Kupffer cells) are useful as these tumours will not accumulate the agent, whereas focal nodular hyperplasia does."
"Typically these tumours occur in young adults (20 to 40 years of age) without gender predilection. Unlike hepatocellular carcinoma, they do not have an association with cirrhosis, alcohol use, or hepatitis B/C infection 2."
"A mnemonic to help remember the features of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma is PSYCH."

"Mnemonic"
"These tumours are well-differentiated and well-circumscribed, with a dense fibrotic background 2. The tumour cells are arranged in cords that are separated by sheet-like fibrous bands arranged in a parallel or lamellar distribution 4; hence the name, fibrolamellar."
"will retain liver-specific contrast agent (e.g. Eovist); this has not been reported in fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma"
