Methods: 59 patients with different liver diseases were examined by two-phase or multi-phase dynamic helical CT. Results: Small hepatocellular carcinoma showed a higher density in the arterial phase, and a lower den- sity in the portal vein phase. Large hepatic carcino- ma showed a mixed pattern of higher-density in the arterial phase, and a lower density in the portal vein phase. Metastasis carcinoma showed an 'oxeye sign' in the portal vein phase. Hemangioma was not obvi- ously enhanced in the early arterial phase, marginal- ly enhanced in the arterial phase, and equally-densed in the balanced phase. Conclusion: Two-phase helical CT is of value in im- proving the detection rate of or determining the fea- tures of hepatic diseases by two-phase helical dyna- mic scan (2.0-3.0 ml/s speed, and delay time 25- 30 s and 70-85 s).展开更多
