ROLE OF TRIPHASIC CONTRAST-ENHANCED CT IN CHARACTERISATION OF LIVER LESIONS

Abstract

Introduction: 
The liver, a vital organ responsible for digestion, detoxification, and receiving rich blood supply from the hepatic artery and portal vein, is susceptible to various diseases, both benign and malignant. The alteration in blood supply patterns serves as the foundation for the triple-phase scan of the liver. Contrast-enhanced triphasic CT, evaluating the organ in arterial, portal venous, and delayed phases, proves instrumental in identifying a spectrum of abnormalities.
