Cross-sectional imaging is increasingly being employed in the investigation of adults with suspected appendicitis. This review will demonstrate the appearance of the normal appendix on computed tomography (CT) and its appearance in a range of inflammatory and neoplastic processes including appendicitis, ...

Imaging Tests: CT scans or ultrasounds are often used to confirm the diagnosis. Appendicitis Treatment: Appendectomy The most common treatment for appendicitis is the removal of the appendix through a procedure calledappendectomy. This can be done either vialaparoscopic surgery(using small incisions an...
a patient with potential appendicitis. CT evaluation of the right lower quadrant of the abdomen shows changes of appendicitis from wisps of stranding in the periappendiceal, fat-thickened appendiceal wall to frank abscess formation. CT is far more sensitive than any other imaging tool currently used...
CT imaging is helpful in identifying a mucocele caused by the neoplasm. Calcifications increase the likelihood that this process is malignant and not infective or inflammatory. If there is a superinfection associated with the malignancy, there may be air bubbles present on the CT. If the patient...
Neoplasms of the appendix are infrequent diseases that can be generally diagnosed with surgery or pathological examination. One of the most commonly fulfilled surgeries today is appendectomy. The neoplastic diagnoses that come out as a result of the exam
