Overview
Abdominal computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging with contrast is performed to screen for evidence of liver cirrhosis, hepatic adenoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
CT
- Abdominal computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging with contrast is performed to screen for:[1]
- Evidence of liver cirrhosis (nodular hepatic contour and manifestations of portal venous hypertension such as splenomegaly)
- Presence of adenomas
- Evidence of hepatocellular carcinoma
- Patients to be screened include:
- Pediatric age group once adenoma is detected on ultrasound
- Older patients even if there is no adenoma on ultrasound
- These investigations should be repeated every 6 - 12 months or earlier on the basis of laboratory and clinical findings.
