CT scan of the liver.
Since its inception, CT scan has had a dominant role in hepatic imaging. Recent advances including helical CT scan and bolus-triggered scan initiation software packages have had a significant impact. Issues regarding volume, rate of administration, and type of intravenous contrast are being distilled. Workstations for three-dimensional data reconstructions are producing images that compete with conventional angiography in certain areas, while angiographically assisted CT scan is being refined in others.
