Relationship between primary liver hepatocellular carcinoma volumes on portal-venous phase CT imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The liver is an important organ in the body. It is located under the rib cage on the right side. The liver performs many important functions, it processes food for nutrients that the body requires and also helps in the detoxification of harmful materials.

Cancer of the Pancreas: The Best Image for Early Detection – CT, MRI, PET or US?

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2002
Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis, and the best chance for survival is to diagnose the tumour at an early stage. Abdominal ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography are the most ...
