Abstract

Objective:To study the CT findings of the liver abscess.Method: The CT appearance of hepatic abscess was retrospectively analyzed.Result: The CT finding of liver abscess was as following:(1)The lesion with low density was round in shape,(2)The lesion was predominant in right lobe,(3) The lesion showed honey-comb sign and air-filled sign,(4)The lesion was well-defined and showed single,double or three-ring ring sign after injection of contrast agent.(5) Liquefied area of the lesion showed no enhancement on enhanced CT image and became small in size on delayed enhanced CT images.Conclusion: CT is the main inspection methods of liver abscess.
