Using helical CT to diagnosis acute appendicitis in children: spectrum of findings.

K E Applegate1, C J Sivit, M T Myers, B Pschesang.   

Abstract

Helical CT in children shows an overlapping and wide spectrum of appearances of the normal and acutely inflamed appendix. The normal appendix may measure up to 10 mm in maximal diameter but should not have other CT signs of acute inflammation.
