Evaluation of bowel wall thickening by computed tomography to differentiate beni

Due to its high sensitivity and specificity, CT is an ideal imaging modality for differentiating between benign and malignant etiology of abnormal bowel wall thickening. Radiologists should be awar...

Bowel wall thickening at CT: simplifying the diagnosis | Insights into Imaging | Full Text

In this article we present a simplified algorithm-based approach to the thickening of the small and large bowel wall detected on routine computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen. Thickening of the s...

Bowel wall fat halo sign in patients without intestinal disease

We evaluated the presence and frequency of the bowel wall fat halo sign in patients undergoing abdominal CT for clinical indications unrelated to the gastrointestinal tract. Materials and...

Bowel wall thickening at CT: simplifying the diagnosis

• Thickening of the bowel wall may be focal (<5 cm) and segmental or diffuse (6-40 cm or >40 cm) in extension. • Focal, irregular and asymmetrical thickening of the bowel wall suggests a malignancy...

Bowel Obstruction: Signs & Symptoms, Causes, Treatment

Overview ; A bowel obstruction is a partial or complete blockage of either of your bowels — your small intestine or your large intestine. Your intestines move food and (eventually) food waste from your stomach to your rectum, which you pass as stool when you poop. An obstruction blocks your intestinal passageway, slowing movement or grinding digestive processes to a halt. Waste, gas and digestive juices can get stuck behind the blockage, damaging the tissue. The blockage can prevent your bowel...

Bowel wall thickness at abdominal ultrasound and the one-year-risk of surgery in

Data suggest that bowel wall thickness >7 mm at ultrasound is a risk factor for intestinal resection over a short period of time. Routine use of abdominal ultrasound during evaluation of patients w...

CT of Bowel Wall Thickening: Significance and Pitfalls of Interpretation

Attenuation of the Thickened Bowel Wall ; Fig. 4A. —“Target” sign detected only after IV contrast administration in 64-year-old man with pain and bloody diarrhea. CT scan obtained without IV contrast material shows moderate circumferential thickening of sigmoid colon (arrow). Attenuation of bowel wall is homogeneous. Without IV contrast material, further characterization is not possible. Fig. 4B. —“Target” sign detected only after IV contrast administration in 64-year-old man with pain and bloody diarrhea. Contrast-enhanced ...
