Core Tip |
Computed tomography (CT), mostly combined with positron emission tomography, provides one of the most important diagnostic tools in suspected alveolar echinococcosis. Aim of the study was to establish a new CT-classification based on a large patient collective with confirmed hepatic alveolar echinococcosis. The Echinococcosis Multilocularis Ulm Classification-CT presented in this paper is intended to facilitate the recognition and interpretation of hepatic lesions in alveolar echinococcosis based on CT-morphological criteria. It can also be used to more objectively interpret different clinical courses and enhance the comparability of CT findings in the context of scientific studies.
