Liver and Biliary System: Evaluation by Multidetector CT - 18/08/11
, Eleni Liapi, MD, Elliot K. Fishman, MDRésumé |
CT commonly is indicated for the evaluation of suspected hepatic and biliary pathology. The recent introduction of multidetector CT (MDCT) provides unique capabilities that are valuable especially in hepatic volume acquisitions, combining short scan times, narrow collimation, and the ability to obtain multiphase data. These features result in improved lesion detection and characterization.
