Abstract:
A retrospective study on 17 patients with the hepatic fasciola hepatica infection with the positive serum diagnosis was carried out.

In the CT scanner image, the sound intensity in the fasciola hepatica located position was reduced, the lesion usually concentrated. In the MRI, in the phase of abscess, the sign intensity of lesion was low (higher than T1W and lower than T2W), moderate lesion occurred in septal an wall.
