Abstract
Ascitic fluid opacification on delayed intravenous contrast computed tomography scans was observed in eight consecutive patients imaged. This apparently common phenomenon may alter both the sensitivity and the specificity of ascitic fluid detection. It may also serve as a diagnostic aid by making nonascitic intra-abdominal fluid collections (ie, pseudocyst and cystic tumor) more apparent.Entities:
