Abstract:
Objective To study MSCT findings and clinic value of hepatic abscesses on enhanced double-phase and(or)three-phase(arterial and protal venous phase and delayed phase),especially during arterial phase. Methods The MSCT imaging features of 20 cases with hepatic abscesses proved by operation or biopsy were evaluated on enhanced double-phase and(or) three-phase scan during arterial and portal venous phase and delayed phase ,especially during arterial phase.Results (1)The imaging features of aeterial phase were that the hepatic tissues around the lesions showed strong enhancement,but the lesions showed slight enhancement or not or peripheral enhancement. (2)The imaging features of protal venous phase were:a.circular target sign; b.circular sign; c.flower valve sign; d.multiloculated sign. (3)The imaging features of delayed phase were that the masses changed smaller or not and the belt disappeared or got vague. Conclusion The double-phase or three phase MSCT scan fully reflects the pathologic changes of hepatic abcesses and is very important to early diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
