  ABSTRACT

TO STUDY RADIOLOGICAL FINDINGS OF LIVER CIRRHOSIS BY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT)

Cirrhosis, the last stage of chronic liver disease, is a major global health problem because it can result in serious side effects such varicealhaemorrhage, ascites, and hepatic encephalopathy brought on by portal hypertension. This study's objective is to evaluate how effectively computed tomography (CT) imaging can identify liver cirrhosis from radiological findings. A 64row CT scanner named the Somatom Sensation 64 (with a slice thickness of 1.2 mm and a pitch of 0.8, produced by Siemens in Erlangen, Germany) was used to scan all 175 patients (93 with cirrhosis, 45 with precirrhotic fibrosis, and 37 control individuals). From portalvenous abdominal scans, only the 5mm axial CT slices were utilised. The scans were sequentially and carefully analysed
