title: [Computerized tomographic potentials in studying the organs of the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal space].
abstract: The report deals with the evaluation of the results of 800 examinations of abdominal and retroperitoneal organs carried out with the aid of a third-generation apparatus Somatom (Siemens; FRG). The lesions were responsible for changes in the relative density of the parenchyma (diffuse or local). In some cases, neoplasms were found which caused deformation and swelling of the organs. Due to application of densitometry, neoplasms were identified (liquid, adipose) and small-size calcinates and hemorrhages detected. The apparatus resolution varied within 0.3-2 cm, depending on the ratio of volumes of normal and tumor tissue.
