Abstract
Dynamic computed tomography of hepatic tumors revealed a transient attenuation difference of the liver in a lobar or segmental distribution in 3 cases. The difference was most prominent during the heptogram phase. It was attributed to siphonage of arterial blood by hepatic tumors in 2 cases, while an increase of arterial flow induced by portal vein occlusion was inferred in the other case. Results indicate dynamic computed tomography will be useful in analysis of geometrical hemodynamics.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
