Abdominal abscess. Imaging and intervention
Radiol Clin North Am.
1994 Sep.
Abstract
The diagnosis and management of patients with abdominal abscesses continue to challenge those involved in imaging and interventional techniques. In this article, the authors discuss the use of ultrasonography and CT scans in the work-up of patients suspected of having abdominal abscesses and describe techniques useful for their management preoperatively.
