Core Tip |
Enteric-coated tablets may appear as hyperdense images on computed tomography (CT) scan, and lead to misdiagnosis, for example of small intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors which usually show homogeneous enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT phases. Therefore, when observing small hyperdense lesions in the gastrointestinal tract on CT scan, physicians should be aware of possible radiopaque medications. A perfect knowledge of the patients’ medical treatment (even occasional) and a multidisciplinary review of all the images are essential to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary investigations. |
