Computed tomography of adult polycystic disease.
Twenty-three cases of polycystic disease were reviewed. All were easily detected by computed tomography. All manifested diffuse, bilateral renal cystic disease, and 74% had demonstrable hepatic cystic disease. Computed tomography is more accurate than other conventional modalities in diagnosing renal cysts, and its simplicity of operation and ease of interpretation are unmatched.
