Thirty-four patients with liver disease were studied with a research model of the Varian Six Second body scanner. Useful information was gained in patients with a variety of hepatic disorders. This scanner permits resolution of normal hepatic parenchymal detail which has not been reported previously and has reduced the streak artifacts originating from high- and low-CT objects which have been a major source of image degradation with other units.

113 cases of pancreatic and renal disease studied by both ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) were analyzed retrospectively. CT provided a diagnosis when pancreatic ultrasound was unsuccessful due to overlying bowel gas or obesity and when renal ultrasound was unsuccessful due to obesity, reverberations from ribs, small lesions, or multiple lesions. Conversely, ultrasound provided a diagnosis when CT was unsuccessful due to lack of fat planes or respiratory motion. CT usualy distinguished carcinoma from pancreatitis when ultrasound showed a focal echogenic mass. CT resolved renal cyst from neoplasm when ultrasound showed a mixed echo pattern mass.
