Computed tomography of liver specimens.
Fourteen liver specimens were studied by computed tomography with pathological correlation to evaluate the possible application of this technique to the diagnosis of hepatic lesions. Lesions were clearly demonstrated in 9 of 10 abnormal specimens, but differentiation among hepatomas, metastases, and cysts was not possible in vitro.
