PDFAbstract
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of enhanced CT and MRI plain scan in the diagnosis of hepatic abscess. Methods A total of 62 cases with abdominal discomfort in our hospital from June 2014 to June 2015 were selected and given enhanced CT and MRI plain scan, and 29 cases were diagnosed as hepatic abscess. Results The number of lesions detected by enhanced CT was higher than that detected by MRI, and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05). The ability of enhanced CT to detect liver abscess was higher than that of MRI, the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05). The ratio of necrotic cystic cavity to solid mass around liver abscess was relatively small, and the ratio of necrotic cystic cavity to surrounding edema tissue area in liver abscess was larger on MRI images. There are differences in imaging findings between the four routes of infection at the early stage of abscess formation. Conclusion Enhanced CT and MRI plain scan have their advantages and disadvantages in diagnosis of liver abscess, and they have high diagnostic value in combination.
