The authors retrospectively analyzed the results of radionuclide imaging (RI) and computed tomography (CT) of the liver in 174 patients. RI correctly identified 90% of patients with focal hepatic lesions while CT identified 85%. CT was capable of differentiating tumor, abscess/hematoma, and cyst while RI was more sensitive in the detection of hepatocellular disease. CT distinguished regenerating nodules from other focal lesions. Radionuclide imaging remains the preferred initial screening examination in patients with suspected focal liver disease, while CT is the examination of choice to distinguish obstructive from nonobstructive jaundice.
作者回顾性分析了174例患者肝脏的放射性核素成像（RI）和计算机断层扫描（CT）结果。RI正确识别出90%的局灶性肝病变患者，而CT识别出85%。CT能够区分肿瘤、脓肿/血肿和囊肿，而RI在检测肝细胞疾病方面更敏感。CT能将再生结节与其他局灶性病变区分开来。放射性核素成像仍是疑似局灶性肝病患者首选的初始筛查检查，而CT是区分梗阻性黄疸与非梗阻性黄疸的首选检查。
