Diagnosis of esophageal varices on liver CT: is thin-section reconstruction necessary?
Routine liver CT protocol is sufficient for evaluation of esophageal varices in cirrhotic patients without adding thin section reconstruction images.
Giving a known mammographic position and a sonographic perceptibility of clusters of microcalcifications in a maximal depth of penetration of 2 cm, 13 MHz high resolution ultrasound examination in combination with mammography prove to be a valuable means in facilitating the preoperative localisation.
