title: Ultrasonography and computed tomography of hepatic candidiasis in immunosuppressed patients.
abstract: The ultrasonic appearance of Candida infection in the livers of immunosuppressed patients is quite characteristic. Cystic, target-like lesions were found in three patients receiving chemotherapy for myeloproliferative diseases. The computed tomographic appearance is less characteristic. A possible explanation for the appearance of these lesions is presented.
