The Davies review questions for LIVER is designed to assess knowledge of liver anatomy and pathology using sonography. It covers identification of liver segments, structures aiding in diagnosis of liver conditions, and understanding blood supply, enhancing diagnostic skills in medical imaging.

Metastatic disease most likely due to a colon primary
Rate this question:
Patients with liver cirrhosis are at increased risk for hepatocellular carcinoma
Metastatic disease occurs commonly with cirrhosis
Patients with liver cirrhosis tend to develop multiple cysts in their liver and pancreas
The presence of regenerative nodules rules out cirrhosis
All the above are correct
