Overview
Abdominal CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of cirrhosis in patient with jaundice. Findings on CT scan suggestive of cirrhosis include cirrhotic liver, as shrinkage and atrophy of liver, dilated portal vein and/or splanchnic veins, esophageal varices, collaterals in any abdominal organ, splenomegaly, and ascites.
CT
Abdominal CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of cirrhosis in patient with jaundice. Findings on CT scan suggestive of cirrhosis include:[1][2][3][4]
- Cirrhotic liver, as shrinkage and atrophy of liver
- Dilated portal vein and/or splanchnic veins
- Esophageal varices
- Collaterals in any abdominal organ
- Splenomegaly
- Ascites
