Abstract
Objective To explore the imageology characters of primary biliary cirrhosis(PBC) and Viral hepatitis cirrhosis.Methods A total of 40 cases with PBC (group A) and 40 cases with viral hepatitis cirrhosis (group B) were included in our study.Spiral CT was conducted to every participants and the result in two groups were compared.Results The liver volume increased were found in 9 (22.5％) and 3 (7.5％) cases respectively in group A and B,but the difference has no statistical significance(x2 =3.53,P ＞ 0.05).The left lobe of outside part of liver increased were found in 2 cases and 3 cases in group A and B respectively,another 2 cases in group A showed hepatic diffusivity increased.Twenty-eight cases(70％) in group A and 8 cases(20％) in group B combined with cholecystitis.There is significant difference between them (x2 =20.20,P ＜ 0.05).About 13 (32.5 ％) and 7 (17.5 ％)cases combined with gallstone in group A and B and the difference has statistical significance(x2 =2.40,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Spiral CT can be used to diagnose PBC and viral hepatitis cirrhosis.
