case_images: Hepatic radiograph appearance was variable and revealed abnormal findings (Fig. 1). In case one (Fig. 1A) liver had a relatively large size, normal echopattern, but, with two well defined sonolucent cysts with thin internal septae. Liver in case two (Fig. 1B) showed average size with a well defined hypodense non-enhancing hydatid cystic lesion and is seen affecting segment V and VI. Liver in case three (Fig. 1C) had a large well-defined hypodense hydatid cyst involving the postro-superior segment of the right lobe (segment VII). The liver of case four (Fig. 1D) was enlarged with smooth contour and uniform enhancing parenchyma with normal patent PV.
