PLENARY SESSION

Special Focus Session

Multidetector CT: Abdominal Visceral Imaging1

W. Dennis Foley, MD

1 From the Department of Radiology, Medical College of Wisconsin, Froedtert Hospital East, 9200 W Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53226. From the Plenary Session, Special Focus Session: Multisection CT (Multidetector Row CT): Applications in the Chest and Abdomen, presented at the 2000 RSNA scientific assembly. Received August 6, 2001; revision requested January 11, 2001 and received March 4; accepted March 6. Address correspondence to the author (e-mail: dfoley@mcw.edu).

Multidetector computed tomography (CT) has diffused rapidly into clinical imaging practice in a short time. Major improvements in relation to single-detector CT are faster image acquisition and improved z-axis resolution. Abdominal visceral imaging with multidetector CT uses both the vascular and parenchymal phases of contrast material enhancement to provide a combined angiographic and multipass organ-directed study. All examinations are performed with standard contrast material loads.
