Abstract
In seven patients with active fascioliasis of the liver, CT revealed nodular intrahepatic lesions of diminished attenuation, as well as peripheral branching formations. Computed tomography was negative in a single patient with quiescent disease. Computed tomography can be a useful tool for the diagnosis of this disease during the invasive period and also to evaluate response of patients to medical treatment.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
