FOCAL LIVER LESIONS

It is important to apply a systematic approach in the diagnosis and management of focal liver lesions which is possible thorough clinical history and physical examination relevant laboratory and radiological investigations and histopathology. Although histopathology is the gold standard in making the final diagnosis yet it not always feasible being invasive. Over the past few years dynamic CT and USG has become the main diagnostic modality for diagnosis of focal liver lesions. As both of these techniques vary in terms of sensitivity specificity and accuracy which affects the diagnosing staging and treatment planning. The current study aims to study various radiological pattern of focal liver lesions and correlate between ultrasonographic and Triple phase CT findings in arriving at a specific diagnosis before surgery or biopsy
