Liver Abscesses and Other Intrahepatic Disorders

Liver Scans as Diagnostic Aids

L.D. Samuels, M.D.

Nuclear, infedicine Laboratory, Children's Hospital, and the Department of Pathology, Ohio State Unversity. Correspondence to 561 South 17th Street, Columbus, Ohio 43205

Radioisotope liver scans are a valuable aid in detecting focal in flammatory disease in a child's liver. Good technic and equipment may visualize lesions as small as 1 cm in diameter. Differential diagnosis between abscesses and other mass lesions must be based on other clinical phenomena. The liver scan can reliably in dicate the size and location of lesions before surgical intervention, and allow comparative evaluation of resolution after therapy. The precision of this technic equals or surpasses hepatic angiography.
