Ans. A. Hemangioma* (THE MOST COMMMON BENIGN TUMOR OF LIVER). Note the diagnostic peripheral nodular enhancement in venous phase seen in the left Image.* CT scanning with delayed contrast enhancement shows the characteristic appearance of peripheral nodular slow contrast enhancement due to small vessel uptake in the hemangioma.* Adenomas do not show peripheral nodular enhancement.* FHN shows usually typical stellate central scar, and HCC show heterogenous good enhancement but not peripheral
